Transitioning Your Lawn From Spring to Summer
Need Help Getting Your Yard Ready for Summer?
Here at Local Edge, we know the importance of having your yard look nice as it makes the transformation from spring to summer. As the weather starts getting warmer, most grass types will start to grow rapidly which is a good thing, but you have to make sure that you have someone to stay on top of the trimming or else you run the risk of your grass growing over into your flower beds.
The warmer weather also means that the weeds will grow faster too, so it is very important to keep your grass trimmed so that the longer grass is not providing shade to the weeds to help in their growth. Another thing about the fast approaching summer is figuring out how much to water your lawn and flowers, so having a professional helping you to figure out how much water your yard is going to need is also a good thing.

Don’t Cut Your Lawn Too Short
Dont Cut Your Lawn Too Short!
One of the most common lawn care mistakes that people make is that they cut their lawn way too short, thinking that they are saving themselves time because their yard won’t need to be mowed again for a few weeks. The problem is that cutting your lawn too short or scalping it as some people call it, is not good because it causes your lawn to become stressed out and it allows things like weeds to take over while the lawn is taking all of its strength to grown back.
The reason why the lawn takes longer to grow and you have weed problems with short grass is because it cannot properly photosynthesize itself, causing it to grow slowly and a lot of times you will cause dead spots in your law. A very short lawn needs lots of water to help it regrow, so that is why it is best left up to the professionals to cut your lawn. We promise to never cut your grass any shorter than it needs to be, so please pick up the phone and give us a call!
