Summer Yard Tips...

Watering:

If it does not rain, you should water a minimum of 1” or for a period of one hour

 every week.

 

Municipalities have water restrictions in place and most will allow watering one day per

week. Check our website Home Page for your watering bylaws.

 

Mowing:

When mowing during summer months, raise the mower height to the maximum. 

  • Mow your lawn as it needs it.  If the lawn is suffering from heat stress, mowing should be suspended,  especially in the afternoon, when temperatures are highest.   
  • Never remove more than one third of the grass blade at any one time and leave the clippings.   
  • Make sure your mower blade is sharp to cut the grass blade cleanly.
  • After mowing in dry weather, a light watering is recommended.
