How low should I cut my grass normally?You should cut your grass no shorter than 3 inches. Back to Top
When I normally cut my lawn is it better to bag or mulch?It is better to mulch because it helps the quality of the soil improve. Back to Top
Why is slit seeding better than core aeration and seeding?Core aeration only pokes holes in the soil and pulls a soil plug every 2" to 4". Where the slit seeder cuts grooves in the soil 1/4" to 1/2" and in rows about 1" apart which loosens much more soil thus giving a better seed to soil contact for better germination. Back to Top
How come there are bare spots in my newly seeded yard?90% of the time the reason is because the bare area is not receiving enough water. Back to Top
How often do I need to seed my lawn?In our area lawns will improve by seeding every year. It just depends how much of a financial investment you want to commit to a thick, green, "carpet like" yard. Back to TopRevised: 01/20/08. |
