With the rain we received last night, it was a great opportunity to aerate lawn. With aeration, air, water and nutrients can get down to root level with ease and inturn the grass will thrive instead of starve!

Alternating mowing direction by at least 45° each time when mowing, is more work. But at least packing soil in same direction is reduced and makes aeration more effective in the following year!😉😎

If I never aerated the lawn, there would be more mud tracks indicating standing water. Luckily those are just natural low spots. Aeration is key to healthy lawn!

3 weeks, 4days and eight hours that I have patiently waited and checked everyday, including today before it was finally dry enough to mow. I had overseeded and fertilized before the spring snow hit, followed by a monsoon worth of rain. Patience is key when overseeding as you don’t want to suck up fresh grass seed by mowing too soon. Keep it damp everyday and it should have a better chance of survival.

As you can see, the perennial ryegrass is the wider blades in grass seed. When you can start seeing these blades standing out, is about the time to mulch your grass. The grass should be cut no further than 1/3 of the way. If your mower deck is at the 2.5-3” mark, then this is the time to mulch. Any later and you’ll need to bag or rake it.

Well hopefully everyone took advantage of the non winter weather and attended to their turf. All this snow will be an amazing water source for freshly aerated and seeded/ fertilized lawns. 😉

Hello again, it’s a perfect day for aerating, seeding and fertilizing to give your acreage that jump start. Fertilizer now is phosphate free, don’t be alarmed if you see a bag that says 30-0-3. First number is nitrogen, gives the nice, rich green color. Second number is phosphate, when introduced to water systems it accelerates algae growth. Finally last number is potassium & potash, grow those roots for healthy, strong grass. When it comes time to mow, leave your deck 3” high and mulch those clippings back onto lawn or call myself to book an appointment! Happy turf building!
