What does moss in a lawn indicate?

• <div><p>Moss growing in a lawn is a sign of poor soil that makes it hard for grass and plants to grow. Moss thrives in these conditions and spreads easily, so it can quickly take over your yard if it’s lacking in nutrients, too wet, or has an excessive amount of shade. Moss in the lawn isn’t always a bad thing, but it can prevent turfgrass from forming deep roots.</p></div>

What if I water my grass too much in winter?

• <div><p>If you accidentally watered your grass too much during the winter months, try <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-lawn-aeration.htm">aerating your lawn</a> to encourage absorption of the water into the soil and improve drainage. Dethatching your lawn can also help the solid recover from overwatering and encourage healthy root and stalk health in your grass.</p></div>

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: What happens if you don't aerate your lawn?

• <div><p>When you don&rsquo;t aerate your lawn, the soil will become more compact over time. This limits how much water can soak in to reach the roots of your grass, and it keeps oxygen and carbon dioxide from the plant roots. This can limit grass growth, which may sound great for limiting mowing, but it also leads to a lawn full of grass that looks dull and sparse. Eventually, compacted soil can weaken grass, while also making it more vulnerable to pests, diseases, and erosion and even causing it to die off.</p></div>

Q: How do I bring my yard back to life?

• <div><p>If your lawn and general landscape are struggling, consider calling a local landscape specialist to suggest lawn amendments, local plants, and hardscape changes to boost the long-term health of your outdoor space. While you may be able to take on small projects yourself&mdash;such as <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/reseeding-and-repairing-lawn.htm">reseeding your lawn</a> or testing the soil&mdash;a professional can help you build a plan to bring a struggling yard back to life quickly.</p></div>

I interviewed several contractors but Justin came out personally, did a thorough review and provided a solid bid. The work was outstanding - completely reworked out lawn and flower beds - they now look fabulous. And the crew went over and above adjusting my sprinklers. Highly recommended!
