Lawn Care for Dummies!
Water, Mow. Water, Mow.
Mowing correctly is important in maintaining a healthy and good-looking
lawn. There are 4 simple rules to keeping your front yard looking green and
fresh instead of brown and dull
First of all, don’t mow your lawn too short. It will damage the roots and
weeds will begin to grow more quickly.
Second, mow in different directions. Weeds grow in the direction that you
mow. If you mix it up, you’ll confuse them.
Third, keep the blades of your lawn mower sharp. If the blades are dull it
will rip out the grass instead of cutting it. (For safety reasons, please
remove the blades from the mower before sharpening them.)
Finally, Don’t wait for the rain…Water it! Even if you mow it right, without
water, your lawn will still look ugly.
If you follow these simple rules you’ll keep your lawn (and home) looking
cleaner. If you still can’t figure it out, or you just don’t want to, visit our Lawn Help section and hire
someone to do it for you.
