Frequently Asked Lawn Care Questions
Q: Why is weed control important for my lawn?
A: Weeds compete with grass for water, space, nutrients, and light. They can take over an unhealthy lawn quickly if left uncontrolled. Proper fertilization, watering, and mowing are vital in weeds; a healthy lawn is the best weed prevention.
Q: Why is fertilizer important for my lawn?
A: Grass require fertilizer to maintain vigor and health. The key to applying fertilizer is timing. A properly fertilized lawn is vital. Fertilization will help fight against weeds, drought, and disease. A slow-release granular nitrogen fertilizer should be used to provide essential nutrients consistently throughout the season.
Q: Should lawn and grass clippings be bagged?
A: When possible I DO NOT like remove grass clippings from the lawn. Clippings are essential, they return organic matter and nutrients to the soil. The ONLY time we recommend removing the clippings from the lawn is if you start to see clumping from the grass being overgrown tall between mowings.
Q: When should pre-emergence herbicides be applied?
A: Eighty percent of germination will occur when soil temperatures at the 0-2 inch depth are consistently between 60 and 70 F. For pre-emergence herbicides to be effective, they need to be applied before the soils reach this optimum temperature range.
