Lakewood lawn care services
Lawns require an abundance of loving care and attention. If you ignore your lawn, it won't take long to become overgrown, mossy, or covered in weeds. The trouble is that lawns have to bear lots of stress, foot traffic, and wear and tear. Children, pets, and weather all contribute to making it even messier.
Fortunately, our Lakewood lawn services can help you to easily treat and maintain your lawn. If you'd prefer to go it alone, here are some of the best ways to keep your Lakewood lawn healthy and green all year-round.
Drainage
Your lawn needs sunlight, proper drainage, and sufficient moisture. If it doesn't get enough of these three things, it will suffer. As more pets, kids, and adults walk on the lawn; it will become more compacted. This condition will lead to poor drainage, which can cause water to collect in low-existing areas during rainfall or heavy irrigation. Fortunately, it is a simple problem to solve, in spring and fall every year, aerate your lawn. If you're unsure of where to start with aeration, we'd be happy to help.
Weed control
Weeds are one of the most annoying things for many avid gardeners. Weeds grow in warm, wet weather, exactly the conditions a lot of other desired plants do. So if your garden is blooming, there are more chances that your lawn is blossoming with beautiful yellow dandelions.
The best method to remove weeds from a lawn is to mow it frequently. Cutting the grass one time a week during the growing season will stop weeds from establishing and shedding their seeds all over the place. Be aware not to cut the grass too low. It will exert less pressure on your lawn if you allow the grass to rise to mid-length. It also prevents your lawn from drying out in excess during an arid spell.
If weeds have taken hold in your lawn and it has more dandelions than grass, it's a great thought to treat the area with a natural herbicide. These obtain their strength from non-chemical sources and are therefore superior to the natural environment.
Lawn feeding
As humans need food to live, grass also requires nutrients. Most specialists suggest that you provide your lawn some fertilizer during the spring and autumn season, but it is also preferred to feed your grass in the midst of the summer. Search for a complete fertilizer that contains necessary micronutrients in addition to nitrogen, potassium, and phosphate.
Mix diluted fertilizer in your watering can. In this way, you can water and fertilize your lawn at the same time. Lawn care professionals have a good choice of lawn feed and weed products that will help to maintain your lawn in its best condition.
Watering
Lawns require water in dry weather- otherwise, the grass will die. If there are water restrictions in place, be sure to water early in the morning before the sun gets too hot. Or else the water you are using will evaporate before it can be absorbed.
