Most owners of country houses strive to arrange a lawn on the site. Few people at this moment imagine what attention and care the lawn will require. According to the advice of Myrtle Beach Lawn Service, you need to start taking care of it immediately after the snow melts in spring. Find below rules of a beautiful lawn.
Dressing
Spring dressing should stimulate grass growth throughout the season, because it is rich in nutrients. During the season, you will have to return to the procedure more than once. The last dressing in autumn stimulates the root system.
Provide Air
Aerate regularly to improve air exchange at the roots and accelerate the growth of grass.
Mow Regularly
The time for the first mowing comes in May, when the grass reaches a height of 10-15 cm.
The first spring cut is done up to a height of 8 cm. The grass is mowed to a height of 4-6 cm throughout the season.
Mulch
The task of the procedure is to stimulate the tillering of lawn grasses and to form side sprigs, which should create an even green lawn.
Water Thoroughly
A lawn that is mowed once a week needs to receive 30 liters of water per square meter daily. For one watering, the soil layer should be moistened to a depth of 10 cm.
Weed Out
Weeding can be carried out in two ways: by weeding manually or using selective herbicides for this purpose.
The whole range of lawn care measures not only makes it possible to get a beautiful lawn, but also helps to fight weeds.
