Q: Is sugar good for plants?

• <div><p>Sugar is good for plants, despite limiting nitrogen absorption. However, the sugar that is healthy for plants is typically the same sugar created by plants as part of photosynthesis. In other words, table sugar is not good or bad for plants on its own, just keep track of nitrogen levels in the soil. But don&rsquo;t worry, sugar won&rsquo;t kill your grass.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth paying for professional lawn care?

• <div><p>In most cases, it is worth paying for professional lawn care. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/spring-lawn-care-and-landscaping-tips.htm">DIY lawn maintenance</a> is possible, but it can get extremely time-consuming, especially to make your property look well-maintained. Not only is lawn maintenance time-intensive, but it can also get expensive, even to DIY, especially considering the cost of fuel and maintenance for your lawn care tools. Professional lawn care services average around <b>$100 per service</b>, making it a relatively inexpensive investment, especially for how much time it saves you.</p></div>

Q: Is organic or synthetic fertilizer better for your lawn?

• <div><p>Whether <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/lawn-treatment-synthetic-or-organic.htm">organic or synthetic fertilizers are better</a> for your lawn depends on your goals, budget, and plans for other lawn treatments. Organic fertilizer costs more but is likely to benefit your lawn more in the long run by improving the soil as well as feeding your grass. Synthetic fertilizers get faster results but don&rsquo;t enrich the soil and may contaminate nearby bodies of water if you live on a shoreline. A hybrid fertilizer may be an option to give you the benefits found in both organic and synthetic fertilizers. </p></div>

Q: Why do I have so much clover in my lawn?

• <div><p>Too much clover in your lawn can indicate several issues with your soil. Clover can thrive in soils with abnormally high pH, low-cut grass, and low nitrogen. Amending these issues can push clover out for good.</p><p>Hardy perennial clover loves the low nitrogen and compact conditions that often come with poor, infertile soils. But other factors also contribute to a clover explosion, including drought conditions, cool temperatures, under fertilization, and over-irrigation. You&rsquo;ll need to evaluate all these elements when planning to kill off the clover.</p></div>
