They have a tendency to take away too many nutrients from your lawn and can even prevent oxygen. Both of these can starve your grass. Remove Thatch Thatch is made up of dead organic matter, such as leaves, grass, and roots. When thatch builds up on your lawn, it blocks moisture and nutrients your lawn needs to stay healthy. You will avoid dead patches of grass when you remove thatch regularly. Mow and Edge Besides having to adhere to local ordinances, moving and edging your lawn will ensure your grass is thick and uniform. You will need to mow less when it’s cold and more when it’s warm. Edging keeps your law looking tidy and can be done using an edging tool after mowing. Fertilize and Water Your lawn needs food, which is why you need to fertilize and water it. Depending on what type of grass you grow will determine what kind of fertilizer you use. Normally, you should fertilize twice a year. Watering is essential to keep your grass green. It’s best to water in the morning, when it’s cooler. Wrapping Up With these lawn care tips, you will have most of the basics covered. If you feel all of this sounds like too much work, or prefer a professional’s touch, you can hire a landscaper to do the work for you.
