Summer Lawn Care Tips From The Master Gardener
June signals hot weather and lawn stress. Do not cut the grass shorter than one and a half inches to protect the crown from sun and preserve root depth for strong growth. The article urges high mowing for healthier turf.
Lawn Care Guide Warns Against Overcutting and Light Watering
The article advises against close mowing and urges deep soaking during dry spells twice a week at most. It warns that frequent light sprinkling causes roots to stay near the surface and face heat and poor nutrients. It also recommends removing crab grass promptly and raking before mowing to cut seed heads and prevent seeding.
