Q: What fall lawn prep should I do for spring?

• <div><p>In the fall, you should aerate the soil, overseed the bare spots, kill weeds, mow the lawn low, and rake your leaves. By boosting your lawn&rsquo;s health in the fall, your grass will be stronger throughout the winter and come back healthier in the spring. You should also trim your perennials so that they withstand the winter and are ready for new growth in the spring. </p></div>

Q: What should I do if my seeds aren’t sprouting?

• <div><p>If it&rsquo;s been a few weeks and you haven&rsquo;t seen anything pop up, double-check your seed packet and make sure you didn&rsquo;t miss any steps. Did they need cold stratification (putting seeds in the freezer and then transferring to water before planting)? Do they have an exceptionally long germination period? </p><p> If you&rsquo;ve followed all of the directions closely, you may just have had a bad batch of seeds. (Sadly, it happens.)</p></div>

Q: How do you redo a bad lawn?

• <div><p>The first step in re-doing a bad lawn is correctly diagnosing the problem. That&rsquo;s why we recommend calling a licensed and trustworthy lawn care company that can help turn your damaged lawn around. Once the problem is diagnosed and fixed, you&rsquo;ll want to keep up with lawn maintenance by watering, mowing, and feeding your lawn the proper nutrients.</p></div>

Q: What will kill crabgrass but not grass?

• <div><p>A spot herbicide for weed control is effective at killing crabgrass and not grass, but it depends on the type of herbicide. Always check the label to ensure that your herbicide is safe for grass but tough on crabgrass. Overall, spot treatment is ideal because it puts fewer herbicides into the soil, which can damage the soil. If you&rsquo;re wanting a natural remedy to crabgrass that also won&rsquo;t harm surrounding grass, you can also hand-remove crabgrass or even pour boiling water or 5% vinegar over crabgrass as a spot treatment.</p></div>

Q: Which grass is closest to St. Augustine?

• <div><p>Both zoysia grass and bermuda grass are somewhat similar to St. Augustine because they&rsquo;re all warm-season grasses. Beyond that, most grass types have unique properties that set them apart. Zoysia grass costs twice the price of St. Augustine grass on average and it has thinner blades and a deeper green appearance. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/bermuda-vs-st-augustine-grass.htm">Bermuda grass, compared to St. Augustine</a>, has much thinner blades, is softer to the touch, and has a higher tolerance for colder weather.</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.
