Early Summer Lawn Care

Early summer is an ideal time to fertilize your lawn, spot treat weeds and apply preventative grub control. This application will improve your lawn color within one to two weeks. You’ll notice weeds start to curl up in just one to two days and slowly decline.

Recommendations:
Don’t mow your lawn right away. Be sure to water in the fertilizer and grub control treatment areas two hours after the application.

Mowing:
Proper mowing and watering are critically important to maintaining a lush lawn throughout summer. Mowing height should be increased to 3” as warmer weather approaches. The lawn should be mowed frequently enough so that only 1/3 of the leaf blade is being cut off at one time.

Watering:
Unless you have a shaded lawn, regular watering should begin in early summer. Frequency and quantity of watering needed will depend on rainfall frequency and  your lawn’s grass type and soil composition.
