How do I keep my lawn green in a drought?

• <div><p>First, make sure you’re watering your grass early in the morning (and keep in mind you don’t have to water every day). Doing this helps ensure the water is able to soak in before the hot temps evaporate all of the water. Also, when you mow, don’t mow your grass as short as you would in non-drought conditions. Taller grass can help slow down the rate at which soil dries out. Finally, take your leftover lawn clippings and spread them out across the lawn to give it a little extra shade and nutrients.</p></div>

Where does fescue grass grow best?

• <div><p>Depending on the species, most fescue grasses thrive in <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/know-your-hardiness-zone.htm">USDA hardiness zones</a> 3 through 8, though some varieties can thrive as far as zone 10. While it’s a cool-season grass, it has the unique ability to adapt and thrive in many different types of climates. For this reason, you'll mostly find fescue grasses throughout the transitional temperature zones of the country. </p></div>

Q: How do I keep my lawn green in a drought?

Q: Can I combine liquid aeration with other lawn treatments?

• <div><p>Yes, you can typically combine liquid aeration with other lawn treatments. However, follow the specific product's instructions and consider the compatibility of treatments. In most cases, liquid aeration can complement fertilization, overseeding, or weed control programs. Combining treatments strategically can address multiple aspects of your lawn's health and appearance simultaneously. Always read and adhere to the guidelines provided by the product manufacturers to ensure safe and effective application.</p></div>

Q: Should I use fungicide on grass with powdery mildew?

• <div><p>You can use a fungicide to help control powdery mildew, but you should apply it judiciously as it can damage soil health and persist in the soil. Most of the time, proper watering, surface drying, and limiting shade can control powdery mildew without needing harsher interventions. If you have a repeated problem with powdery mildew, you can also try planting a shade-resistant <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-type-grass-will-grow-best-my-yard.htm">type of grass</a> that will be less susceptible to the fungus.</p></div>

Q: What precautions do pros take to protect plants and landscaping?

• <div><p>Professionals employ protective measures such as covering or temporarily relocating plants, minimizing chemical usage, and carefully planning construction routes to avoid damage. These precautions preserve the integrity and appearance of the landscaping during projects.</p></div>

Zach did a great job on our lawn. He cut, trimmed and blew the clippings so it looked very nice. He was on time and did this on one of the hottest days. I would recommend him for your lawn care.

He does a good job. He will trim shrubs but he does not do that for us. He was doing the lawn before we moved in so he was familiar with the lawn. We told him not to mow the grass when it was wet and he did not. When the grass was dry we called him and he came out. I would recommend him.
