Parkville is a CDP in Baltimore County and is located about 7 miles from Baltimore City. Interstate 695, the Baltimore City line, Rossville Boulevard, and Loch Raven Boulevard border it in the north, south, east, and west, respectively. It has a vibrant and inclusive community, which is well-connected with its Czech and Slovak heritage and celebrates it during an annual festival. Although Parkville has numerous shops, cafes, and recreational centers for its residents, many people opt to commute to nearby cities for better jobs. This is both hectic and time-consuming.
Unsurprisingly, weekends are reserved for spending time with their family and friends. Resultantly, there is little time to spare for lawn maintenance. So, how should these lawns be saved from falling into a state of neglect? It's simple: contact Lawn Love.

Taking care of your Parkville lawn
Parkville has several scenic locations, including Cromwell Valley Park, Loch Raven Reservoir, and Double Rock Park. Thus, the residents here are no strangers to the joy experienced when one beholds a pinnacle of natural beauty. Your lawn is an opportunity of bringing a small fraction of this beauty to your backyard. However, maintaining a lush lawn is not always easy. You have to assess the climatic and terranean parameters of the area and identify the requirements of your lawn accordingly.
Baltimore County has a humid subtropical climate. Summers are long and hot, and the temperatures reach up to 88 °F in July. Warm-season turfgrasses such as Bermudagrass, Bahia grass, and Zoysia grass grow well during this period. Winters are cool and moderately snowy. January is the coldest month in which the temperature might drop as low as 26 °F. Most grasses will enter a state of dormancy this time of the year, except for some cool-season grasses like Bluegrass and Ryegrass. Moreover, the average annual rainfall and snowfall are 45 and 20 inches, respectively. Thus, water shortage rarely occurs if it ever does.
Also, the soil in this region is not too bad for growing a lawn. It is well-drained and absorbs a lot of water. Still, it will require occasional aeration and fertilization. In terms of pH, it might be semi-alkaline or almost neutral. There is little need for pH modification, but if alkalinity is proving to be too big of a problem, try adding minute quantities of aluminum sulfate and sulfur.
We know that all this information can be too much to digest if you are just beginning lawn care. So, you should consider hiring one of Lawn Love's teams early in the process. They can help you devise a sound strategy and implement it for your lawn.
Common Lawn Problems in Parkville
Plants are living creatures that are vulnerable to a variety of diseases and disorders. That is why, despite your efforts, the lawn sometimes fails to be as lush and healthy as you would want it to be. The following are some of the issues that frequently complicate Parkville lawn care.
Thinning Grass
The density of grass on your lawn can start to decrease for a number of reasons. Perhaps, the winter is too harsh or the soil too compacted. First, identify the underlying cause of the problem and deal with it. Then, overseed your lawn. Overseeding is the sowing of grass seeds in existing turf. It results in the growth of some new grass, improving the grass coverage of your yard.
Salt Damage
Salinity is a serious threat to almost all plants because they are not adapted to deal with extreme osmoregulatory stress. Salt draws water out of the grass and may cause it to wilt. But, how does so much salt get into the soil? Well, some soils are naturally saline due to the presence of underground salt deposits, while others are made saline when too much sodium defroster is used in winter. To remedy this soil, water adequately and uses only non-sodium defrosters.
Slime Mold
Slime molds (also called myxomycetes) are fungus-like creatures that have sticky, glutinous, and shapeless bodies. They reproduce by releasing spores that germinate under favorable conditions. A mature slime mold feeds on microbes or small pieces of debris. Luckily, you can easily get rid of it by washing it away with a high-pressure stream or spray of water.
Fairy Rings
Mushrooms come in different shapes and sizes, but they all tend to grow on soils rich in organic matter. They are absorptive heterotrophs, which means that they externally digest and then absorb their food. When they release enzymes for decomposing organic matter, the grass gets collaterally damaged. Some mushrooms grow in circular patterns called fairy or pixie rings. These rings ruin the beauty of your otherwise neat and clean lawn. To do away with them, punch holes in the fairy ring and frequently flood them with water. These mushrooms cannot survive in wet soil, so they shrivel and die.
Grubs
Beetles lay their eggs underground. When they hatch, small white larvae come out of them. These larvae are called grubs. They feed on roots, especially the delicate ones of grass. With damaged roots, the grass fails to take up sufficient water and minerals from the soil and begins to deteriorate in health. You can release nematodes in the soil or apply eco-friendly pesticides to take care of this problem.
