Q: Is Bahia grass hard to grow?

• <div><p>Bahia grass is not difficult to grow, but you might need patience for this slow-growing grass. Whereas some grass species, like Bermuda grass, can take 1 to 2 weeks to germinate, Bahia grass can take two or three times as long, making it seem like it won&rsquo;t grow. But again, once your Bahia grass is established, it requires little maintenance. Its deep root system makes it a very durable grass that can bounce back after freezes and droughts. </p></div>

Q: How do you thicken new grass?

• <div><p>You can thicken new grass by <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-fertilizer.htm">using fertilizer</a>, watering it 1 to 1&frac12; inches per week, mowing when it is at an optimal height, and preventing weeds. You should fertilize your grass while you plant the grass seed, or soon afterward. Use an herbicide to prevent weeds or spot spray with herbicide to kill existing weeds.</p></div>

Q: How should I water my lawn during hot weather?

• <div><p>You should not water your lawn every day, even in hot weather. For most lawns, watering one to three times per week is sufficient. It is best to water during a drought or when temperatures are high, but avoid watering in the middle of the day or if the temperature exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit. The extreme heat will cause the water to evaporate before the soil can fully absorb it. The best time to water is in the early morning at dawn or in the early evening (between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.) when the temperature is cooler.</p></div>

Q: When should I seek professional gardening services?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/beginning-home-gardening-guide.htm">DIY home gardening</a> can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you&rsquo;d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you&rsquo;d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you&rsquo;ll need and how often to schedule them. </p></div>

Q: How do I prepare for yard work services?

• <div><p>Some things you can do to prepare for yard work services are aerate the soil, fertilize your grass, keep weeds under control, regularly mow your lawn, and water your grass.</p></div>

"These guys were great!! We had a delivery of a massive new front, all in one piece, very heavy. They handled it of total care and stored it in our garage with all the very long trim pieces for installation next day. Kind of an unusual item to deliver so was concerned about the glass, scratching, damage. Again, 5-star handling and very pleased!!"
