The Grass Can Always Be Greener
Turn your neighbours green with envy with these simple lawn care tips!
A thick, healthy lawn doesn’t just look amazing. It instantly boosts your home’s curb appeal and creates a more enjoyable outdoor space for your family.
Here are a few natural lawn care tips to help keep your grass looking its best this summer:
Stay Sharp
Avoid mowing when the grass is wet, and remember to sharpen your blade several times throughout the season.
Zig Zag
Mowing your lawn in a different direction each time helps prevent wear patterns and encourages upright growth.
No Short Cuts
Don’t cut your lawn too short. Taller grass is more stress-tolerant, helps shade out weeds and develops deeper roots to absorb moisture.
Breathe Deeply
Aerating your lawn loosens compacted soil, allowing water, oxygen and nutrients to reach the roots more easily.
Natural Nutrients
Unless your grass is in really rough shape, it’s best to leave the clippings on the lawn, as they’ll break down and provide valuable nutrients.
Pet Patches
If your furry friend is creating brown urine patches on your lawn, water the area right away to help dilute the nitrogen and minimize the damage.
A healthy lawn does more than just turn heads. It releases oxygen, captures dust and dirt, and helps keep the yard cooler and more comfortable all summer long, giving everyone one more reason to spend time outside!
