Apply a balanced fertilizer to ensure your lawn receives essential nutrients. The Reed & Perrine Turf Fertilizer 16-4-8 provides a mix of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium to promote green growth and root development.
4. Weed Control
Prevent and control weeds with pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicides. Snapshot 2.5 TG is an excellent pre-emergent herbicide that keeps your lawn weed-free for up to six months.For organic options, consider the Mirimichi Green Organic Pro Weed Control Herbicide.
5. Pest and Disease Management
Inspect your lawn regularly for pests and diseases. Use appropriate products like the Pillar G Intrinsic Granular Fungicide to control diseases such as dollar spot and brown patch, ensuring your grass stays healthy.
6. Proper Mowing and Watering
Maintain a regular mowing schedule, keeping your grass at the recommended height for its type. Water deeply but infrequently to encourage deep root growth.
