As I sit and type this article I am looking at four to five inches of snow on my lawn. It will melt and the weather will warm up and our lawns will turn green again. Spring is the time of year when homeowners express the most concern about their lawn. In hopes of having a great lawn they fertilize and spray weed control products vigorously. Here are some other things that will help take your lawn to the next level. Take a soil sample to the agriculture soil testing station on Appling. Find out what is missing. Calcium, iron, boron and other trace minerals need to be replaced periodically. A soil surfactant will help manage moisture in your lawn. You may not be aware of insects and disease until they have destroyed part of your lawn. Consult a professional to correctly diagnose and treat these conditions. Core Aerationis a great way to get all of the nutrients to the root system where they will do the most good so aerate before you perform these treatments and you will get much better results.
Thanks,
