LAWN MOWING IN SKOWHEGAN IS NOT ALL THAT SIMPLE!
There are somethings you have to consider before hiring a lawn mowing or other lawn service in Skowhegan.
A well planned lawn management plan is important. It doesn't just mean mowing in Skowhegan, it also includes proper weed control and proper fertilization.
Let's talk about the basics of lawn care for the Central Maine area. To maintain a healthy lawn lets consider some of the basics, first the mowing of the lawn, the growth rate of the grass leading to good mowing habits.
Lawns need a sufficient amount of water, especially during long spells with no rain. Lawns also need the proper mix of fertilizers with the right combination of nitrogen phosphate and potash.
Planting or over-seeding, spraying for weeds, watering, and mowing may all seem simple but it is some serious business for some!
Over all a persons budget has a lot to do with what type of lawn care service they have. If you have a large lawn or one with special needs expect to pay a little bit more, if all your looking for is a usable, well maintained area to spend time with friends and family the expense wont be as high.
LAWN AERATION
Ever wonder why you don't have a thick lush lawn? The problem may be simpler then you think.
Is there a whole bunch of weeds mixed in with your grass, even though you have done a ton of weed prevention and proper fertilization? Is there water pooling on the surface after a heavy rain? Pest problems, unmanageable bare spots?
If these issues are yours, then there might be a very simple solution. The soil on your lawn may just be too compacted. A little aerating might be just what the lawn doctor ordered! If you have a clay soil base or it's just a dry area, you may need to aerate more often.
Testing your lawn is very simple. Take a stick and jab it into your lawn. If the soil is tough to penetrate then you probably need to aerate.
The benefits of aeration are numerous, it allows air, water, and all kinds of necessary nutrients to get to the roots of your grass. It also allows earth worms to move about freely. Not to mention all the other beneficial organisms that take care of pests and help fertilize your lawn naturally. You'll also be breaking off roots to weeds giving your healthier grass a much better chance.
