Lawn care tips for Washington

The best time to mow

Mow weekly from spring until mid to late fall, but pay attention to your grass. It may grow slowly in extreme heat; reduce mowing frequency if it does. Mow in the morning or evening to avoid stressing your grass in the afternoon heat.

How to mow

Never mow a wet lawn, don’t cut more than a third of the grass height each mowing, and be sure to keep your mower blade sharp so you don’t shred the grass.

Use the right fertilizer

A lawn needs nutrients just like us, but you’ll need a soil test to determine precisely what it needs. Then, choose a fertilizer that contains those nutrients. Mid-spring and late summer or early fall are the best times to fertilize.

Water smartly

Lawns require about an inch of water a week, including rainfall. When you water, do so for at least a half hour in the morning to be sure the water is reaching the roots.

Common lawn pests in Washington

Some of the greatest threats to your lawn are nearly invisible until it’s too late: lawn pests. Be sure you have a good strategy to prevent and eliminate them if they show up. Here are the most common ones.
