Common Misconceptions of Lawncare
Debunking urban legends so you can have the greenest lawn.
While this age-old process can be helpful, it is a waste of time and effort if pulled improperly.
Misconception 1:
Hand-pulling is the best way to stop weeds.
The morning is the best time to water since it allows for water absorption before the hot sun evaporates it off.
Misconception 2:
It doesn’t matter what time you water your grass.
Lawns with common grass (Kentucky Blue, Tall Fescue, Perennial Rye) should have fertilizer spread out over 5-7 treatments.
Misconception 3:
You only need to fertilize once or twice a year to have a healthy lawn.
The several varieties of grass meant for cold-season geographies include Kentucky Blue, Tall Fescue, and Perennial Rye. These grass types provide ideal varieties for yearlong lawn care.
