The advantages of sound lawn cultivation techniques

As the saying goes "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!"

1) By limiting the frequency of lawn mowing during dry spells, you prevent a range of problems such as insect infestations.

2) The ideal mowing height is 3 inches (7 cm). This length is conducive to deep root development and a more resistant lawn.

3) Heavy watering on a regular basis is preferable to frequent light watering. The ideal period for watering, in terms of disease prevention, is between 4:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m.

4) Aeration is an important practice for healthy lawns: a stronger root system, better absorption of water and nutrients.

Lawn Care

Everyone wants a healthy green lawn, and typically in our consumer society people seek immediate results with little effort. All too often pesticides are used as a fast, easy solution to the problem of weeds, diseases and insects. However, there are other, natural solutions you can use that pose no danger to health or to the environment. In the days before chemical lawn sprays existed, people still managed to have beautiful lawns. Natural methods of control do require more time and effort though, since you must check the condition of your lawn regularly to keep it healthy. Good lawn practices will improve the growth characteristics of the grass and make it more resistant to disease. With green solutions, you are involved every step of the way, from seeding to maintaining your lawn.

Thistle, plantain and dandelions must be hand pulled by cutting the roots in the ground because mowing does not eliminate them completely. Lamb's quarter and barnyard grass disappear if the lawn is mowed regularly to 7 cm. Mallow, pursiane and foxtail are found in new lawns, but they disappear as the grass becomes thick and healthy.
