Summer Has Arrived

Summer Has Arrived,

LAWNS,

Summer has arrived and in a big way. The heat and drought has been terrible this Summer and the lawns and plants are not liking it. I’m sure your lawn looks like straw for the most part like all others do. So you ask what can I do about it, well the answer is just let it go and let the lawns and Mother Nature do their thing. The lawns have gone dormant from the heat and drought. You ask can I mow my lawn, yes only when needed and on a very high setting. Your only mowing to remove weeds and high spots right now. Mowing lower can damage the root system and mark the lawn. You ask can I fertilizer and perform weed control my answer is if you can wait I would wait some are performing the treatments even with the drought and this could damage or burn the lawn if  your not careful. I’m sure you would rather have weeds that can be taken care of later than a burnt lawn.

 

PLANTS,

Plants are like humans they get hot and thirsty. In weather like this I recommend you water daily or at least three times weekly to help your plant out. New plant material will need water daily or they will die from heat scorch and root burn. The best way for trees and plants are watering bags. If you can’t afford the bags take 5 gal buckets and drill very small holes in the bottom and fill them and set them at the plant rotating the bucket so all sides get water equally. This will help the plant alot and make them much heathier in the long run. Not sure what to do please feel free to contact our trained staff and they will help you get through the heat related questions.  STAY COOL!!
