“If there’s one thing I want to do more of in 2022, it’s go outside,” Valerie said. “I feel like I’ve been cooped up in the house forever. I need a project. I want to transform our yard into a private little paradise for my husband and I, with a gazebo and a fire pit and everything. Of course the lawn is going to need to be on point – but I don’t really have a green thumb. How do I make that happen?”
Total Lawn Renovations: How Your Lawn Care Company Can Help
A lush, vibrant lawn provides the perfect backdrop for ambitious lawn upgrades. Here in the Cohasset area, the primary obstacles to achieving the perfect lawn are often poor soil nutrition and heavily compacted soil.
Understanding Soil Nutrition
When it comes to our own personal health, we understand the critical role nutrition has to play in our well-being. If we don’t eat enough food, or the food we eat is of poor quality, our health suffers. Grass works the same way – but you can’t give your lawn a sandwich.
Fertilizer is a blend of specially chosen minerals and nutrients. It’s applied to your lawn by your Cohasset lawn care company so that it can permeate deeply into the soil and reach the grass’ root system. Fertilizer helps grass grow faster and stronger. Because well-fertilized grass grows thickly and close together, there’s less of a problem from weeds. This results in a more attractive lawn.
Understanding Soil Aeration
In the Cohasset area, local conditions can tend toward a heavy clay soil that compacts easily. When soil is compacted it’s hard for grass to grow. Soil aeration is a service provided by your lawn care company that mechanically loosens the soil and makes it much easier for grass to grow.
