London Landscape Design Services And Supply
Homeowners can save money and time on lawn maintenance supplies and service when they familiarize themselves with the basics of sustainable landscaping care. By following a few recommendations from master gardeners, residents can have healthy, green grass all season long.
- Avoid watering during the heat of the day. Water during early morning hours when supplied moisture is less likely to evaporate.
- Avoid servicing your landscaping with chemical pesticides. While these chemicals get rid of pesky insects, they'll also kill off microbiotic organisms that contribute to vital organic soil.
- Use collected grass clippings and dead leaves as natural fertilizer. Composting raked material saves money on traditional fertilizer and mulch gardening products.
- Fertilize with specialized nitrogen products during spring and fall to promote lush, attractive grass. Applying fertilizer during summer is not effective.
- De-thatch the lawn before spring growth occurs. While thatch buildup is a natural process, it prevents water and nutrients from penetrating the lawn's roots when it becomes thicker than one-half inch.
- Don't be mower-happy. Do grass a service by allowing blades to grow between two and one-half and three inches before cutting the lawn so the soil does not dry out or suffer from heat damage.
