Summer heat can wreak havoc on your lawn. But don't despair, smart lawn management can help you keep things nice and healthy this year.

Here are a few tips:

How can you tell if your lawn needs water? Walk across the lawn in the early morning or evening hours. If footprint remain, water is needed.

Be sure to water after sunset or before sunrise. Avoid watering when it's windy or hot outside.

Set your mower blade higher - a height of 2 1/2" to 3" is ideal. Tall grass encourages deeper root growth and better drought tolerance. And make sure that the blade is sharp. Dull blades thrash the grass, they don't cut it.

Consider mulching your grass. This will return needed nutrients to your yard.

Stay cool out there! And if you or anyone you know need professional lawn services, please don't hesitate to contact us!

It's been a LONG winter and we are ready for spring. It's time to get that lawn green and lush.
No matter what type of grass you have, they can all benefit from a bit of spring care.
Cool-season grasses have two growth spurts – one in spring and fall, but they can struggle in hot summer months, so the focus of spring care is strengthening for summer.
Warm-season grasses—thrive in the heat and go dormant during winter and begin growing after the last spring frost.
Prevention is key for w**d control, so now is the time for pre-emergent herbicide.
Lawns can benefit from a general clean up to remove dead matter and a light feritilizer.
