EXPERT TIPS

Fall Has Arrived

Fall is Here!

Fall is here and your wondering about your lawn from the hot Summer we had. Well let us help you. First look and see if your happy with the way the lawn looks and is the lawn looking healthly. Two if the lawn has spots that have not come back yet it might be time to think about repairing them. September and October are great months to repair lawns. You ask why now, well the air is cool the days are short and we have more moisture in the air. Third thatch and aerate the lawn in two directions and clean the thatching up, Install soil and amendment mixed on a ratio of two to one. Two scoops soil to one scoop  amendment and spread evenly across the areas you wish to repair, Install a good seed for the area, Install erosion control and pin to spec. Water daily until the end of the growing season which is the first large frost. You can remove the erosion control if you wish after the grass starts to grow. Tip if you dont remove it the mower blades will find it and cause you more work.

 

PLANTS,

Plants are like humans they get hot and thirsty. In weather like this I recommend you water daily or at least three times weekly to help your plant out. New plant material will need water daily or they will die from heat scorch and root burn. The best way for trees and plants are watering bags. If you can’t afford the bags take 5 gal buckets and drill very small holes in the bottom and fill them and set them at the plant rotating the bucket so all sides get water equally. This will help the plant alot and make them much heathier in the long run. Not sure what to do please feel free to contact our trained staff and they will help you get through the heat related questions.  STAY COOL!!
