Lawn Mowing Is Vital to Growing A Healthy Grass

• Mowing seems easy, but every time you cut the
  grass, you pave the way for the success or
  failure of the lawn.
• If done correctly, you groom the turf that is
  healthy and thick enough to crowd out the weeds.
• But, if done incorrectly, the lawn will struggle
  to thrive.

Feed The Lawn To Promote Growth  Backyard
Transformation
Lawns need to be fed every six to eight weeks
during the growing season. Organic, as well as
synthetic fertilizers, are used to promote
growth, strengthen the roots, and prevent weeds
or pests. The most popular types of fertilizers
include liquid or granular forms.
5
KEEP A CHECK ON THE COMMON LAWN DISEASES
Like the other plants, lawns can also be affected
by diseases. Over-watering, stress from mowing
too close, humidity, or drought are some of the
causes. However, Red Thread is one of the most
common lawn diseases characterized by patches of
affected grass with a reddish tinge.

Adjust The pH And Water The Lawn Properly
Your lawn requires 1 inch of water every seven
days. Morning is the best time to water the lawn
and helps prevent diseases. Also, instead of
providing water all at once, break up the
watering process into different sessions.

Deal With Moss And Lawn Pests

• Moss is likely to find its way into your lawn,
  where there are shady spots.
• Though it can be raked out, it will return due to
  shade.
• Often you need to remove the trees of lift the
  canopies to allow more sunlight to reach the
  soil.
• Or, you can create a perennial shade garden.

8
Prepare Your Lawn For Winters

• As temperature drops, the lawn prepares to go
  dormant for winter slumber. Remove the fallen
  leaves from the lawn regularly.
• Scarification is done to remove dead organic
  debris, weeds, and moss that obstruct the flow of
  air, water, and nutrients to the roots.
• Also, mowing is not required in the winters,
  because grass starts to grow slowly as the
  temperature dips below 4 C.
