Happy Turf Tip Friday!

Good cultural practices. What does that mean? Why is it important? We’ve got you 😉.

1.) Feed your turf appropriately. Most warm season grasses need anywhere between 1.5-2 lbs of nitrogen per 1000 sq/ft. (Bermuda excluded). There are dozens of calculators available online to help you with this. Our custom 20-0-10 fertilizer is rocking and rolling. $75 for a 50lb bag delivered. The absolute BEST quality available… you can’t find it locally. Link to order in the comments.

2.) Cut height and frequency. Always remove no more than 1/3 of the actual grass blade per mow. It’s not necessary to bag clippings unless you missed a mow or your phosphorus is elevated. Mow as often as your schedule allows… the more the better. Be that crazy neighbor that cuts 2-3x per week.

3.) Water. We’ve discussed it. You can control it.
Want a nice lawn? Spend the time and money ensuring your turf is hydrated.

4.) Sunlight. Remove lawn debris. Trim your shrubs and clear the tree canopy. Longer days in the future will ultimately be better for your turf.

Stay the course. Be proactive and not reactive. Growing grass is simple with the right actions.

Growing grass,
