There are three main components to having a great lawn:
1. Professional lawn treatment services from Ziehler Lawn and Tree Care
2. Proper mowing practices
3. Proper watering practices
If you do not currently have a professional lawn care company to provide the proper blend of nutrients and control products to your lawn, Ziehler Lawn and Tree Care would be more than happy to give you a free estimate. Also, to maximize your investment, please follow these simple instructions for mowing and watering:
Mowing
- Always mow high to shade soil and crowd out weeds.
- Sharpen your mower blade often.
- Mulch the clippings if possible.
- Never cut off more than one third of the grass blade.
- Never mow when temperatures exceed 90 degrees.
- We will blow off all debris and fertilizer from driveways, sidewalks, decks, and porches.
- We will always be available to knowledgably answer any questions or concerns about your lawn.
- We will provide Free Service Calls and estimates within 48 hours.
- We will be dressed in a clean and neat uniform and be courteous and helpful at all times.
- We will apply each application to the best of our ability.
Watering
- A healthy lawn needs about 2 inches of water per week.
- Only water when it is necessary. Often, rain is sufficient.
- Never water at night during humid weather.
- Water deeply (about an hour per zone every three days).
- Be diligent and inspect your lawn regularly for signs of fungus, such as blade lesions.
- Your lawn will go dormant and turn brown without sufficient water. This does not mean it is dead.
