"Making the grass greener on your side of the fence"

Its that time of year again when Texas feels like the surface of the sun. This year has been a bit different than usual in that we have had considerably more rain and in turn a lot more humidity. While that has led most of us to feel a lot more uncomfortable the upside is that the grass has been much less stressed than usual. 

 

What you can expect to see

​

• Grass growth has slowed

​​

• Grass turns brown after mowing and stays that way for several days

​​

• Increased insect activity

​​

How your care should change

 

• We switch from granular fertilizer to liquid fertilizer as it is less stressful on the grass

​

• We recommend raising the height your grass is mowed to cause less stress 

​

• We treat the areas of the lawn that are heavily shaded more aggressively as the insects use these spaces to get out of the heat
