Healthy Grass Questions

Usually grass begins growing in early April. This is when we do our spring yard clean ups. We usually begin our weekly and bi-weekly lawn care shortly after, at the end of April, or beginning of May.
We recommend, and implement a 3″ height for lawns. This allows your lawn to stay healthy and grow, while still looking amazing!
We recommend weekly cutting. Mowing your lawn every week will ensure that it stays healthy, while looking great. In dry years, or near the end of summer bi-weekly mowing may be suffficient, depending on it’s growth.
Power raking, aeration, fertilization, mulching, regular lawn mowing and watering all contribute to having a happy lawn.
