The next 5 weeks are crucial for teeing up a lawn that's golf course inspired. Scalp your lawn. “Scalping” is done when the mower blades are lowered to remove more length from the blades of grass than is typically done in a regular mow. This process clears away winter debris & exposes the soil to more sunlight, helping warm the soil to spur new growth in warm season grasses. Scalping also helps identify problem areas of a lawn to fill in or level sunken areas. Can you DIY? Sure, but it's messy job that [...]

Perhaps you’ve heard that aerating your grass regularly promotes a healthy lawn. But many people don’t realize what an essential tool this process is, how it creates a healthy turf, & when it should be done. What Is Aeration? Aeration really is essential to a healthy lawn in the same way that exercise promotes wellness in the body. Without aeration, your efforts at other basic lawn care such as fertilization may be less effective. Every time you walk, mow, or play on your grass the soil becomes compacted. Over time, this traffic hinders airflow to the roots of grass. [...]

Annual bluegrass will survive in a tiny sidewalk crack, so when it germinates in your lawn it will thrive & can threaten to take over. This cool-season weed germinates in the fall, grows during winter, then explodes over those warmer days in late February to March. If steps to prevent bluegrass and other winter grassy weeds are not taken immediately, preferably no later than the 2nd week of September, the window of opportunity for weed control has been lost. Left uncontrolled, annual bluegrass will be in full bloom by April ready to spread thousands of ripe seeds. Call or [...]
