Many people are turned away by the fact that lawn maintenance is a time-consuming activity. But, be sure that even busy people will be able to maintain their lawn with the right tips. Read on and find out more!

Hire a Professional Lawn Maintenance Service

If you think that your lifestyle doesn’t leave you enough time for lawn maintenance, you can always use a helping hand. There are so many companies whose primary job is to care for your lawn.

The Right Way to Water

Forget about those 15-minute waterings on a daily basis. If you want to have a durable grass that is drought-resistant, you should water three times a week. Go for a deep soak that lasts for one hour.

This will stimulate the roots to grow bigger and deeper. When they are deep, they will use the moisture trapped in the deeper levels of the soil.

This means that your lawn will require less frequent watering, which is perfect if you are too busy to do it on a daily basis.

Don’t Cut it Too Short

Mowing the lawn is a very important step to keep it healthy. But, be sure that you need to do it properly if you want to save time on lawn maintenance in the future.

If you do it in the wrong way, you will have to fix the mistake later. Don’t cut the grass too short, as this can bring you many problems.

Starting from a weed infestation to diseases, weakness, and drying, the list of possible issues is huge. Mowing too low will expose the soil to the sun.

This will expose the weed seeds to the sun, which will make them grow. And let’s not forget about the fact that it will let all the moisture evaporate.

By cutting to the proper length, you protect the grass and save yourself time in dealing with possible problems that will appear.

Mow While the Grass is Dry

Never mow wet grass, as it can cause problems. It can clog the mower, or create an uneven cut.

A great trick to speed up the process is to cover the bottom part of the mower with silicone spray to prevent the grass from sticking.
