Easy Lawn Care - Lawn Maintenance Brampton

By Carl Messenger-Lehmann


Easy lawn care steps to help you achieve the green you need. Helping to get the yard everyone wants. Watch The Water: The most important item to take into consideration in regards to lawn care is watering. The biggest mistake that many of us make is to think is that more is better. This in many times is not the case. Many types of grass will recover better from being dry than they will from being over watered. The best thing that you can do to make the lawn better is to monitor how much water it is receiving through a rain gauge. Try to keep the amount of rain or water received per week to about one and a half inches.

Use Preventative Maintenance: Some things to take into consideration are of course using a fertilizer treatment as well as an herbicide to maintain your lawn. Annual aeration as well will help to keep your lawn lush and beautiful. Look into repairing bare and worn spots in your lawn as well in order to keep it thriving.

Some individuals, myself included, tend to believe even the most basic lawn care a bit tedious. Yep, even just lugging out the old lawn mower for a quick clipping can seem very tedious. But then again, I live in a nearly tropical climate where the grass grows so quickly that if I miss a weekly trimming in the summertime my backyard start to look like a jungle.For people looking for a way to cut down on even basic lawn care, there's also the herbal lawn. True, you may find it more work to get started if you already have a lawn in place, or if the existing lawn is a particularly hardy variety such as St. Augustine or some types of crab grass. But you may find it worthwhile and even pleasurable to incorporate an herbal lawn if you don't have a lawn yet or have a more fragile category growing.

Feed It Right: Make sure you are using a four step program when you are fertilizing your lawn. You want to ensure you follow the instructions on the program that you choose to make sure you get the maximum results from your product. Take the time to read and determine whit it is that will work best and when it is that you should apply the treatments to your lawn.

Mowing Tips: Make sure to mow your grass as necessary and properly. This means leaving it between two and three inches in length during the summer to give it proper time to grow and recover and on the last cutting of the season you should trim it down to about 1.5 inches in order to allow it to survive the winter. Try to maintain how often you cut the lawn as well as what you do when you are cutting it. You should usually leave your clippings on the lawn as these will help to fertilize your lawn and make it more lush and green throughout the year as it feeds off of itself.
