The most common lawns are Kentucky Blue Grass, fine fescue and rye grass the following practices along with Royal Gardens high quality lawn fertilizing program will ensure the best possible lawn:

• Mow high – 3 1/2 inches or higher The taller the cut, the healthier the lawn. There is a huge correlation between the height of the grass and the depth of the roots, the higher you mow the deeper the roots will grow.
• Don’t remove more than 1/3rd of the grass height in a single mow. It will shock the plant and slow its growth. In the spring this may need to be done due to your schedule.
• Mulch your clippings. This will conserve nutrients, reduce thatch, and save time and money in the process. You will have a greener, thicker and weed resistant lawn.
• Keep blade sharp! A sharp blade helps keep your lawn from drying out and makes it more disease resistant.
• Core aerating of your lawn in the spring or fall will reduce compaction and thatch.
• Alternate you’re mowing patterns each time you mow the lawn, this prevents compaction from the tires and prevents traffic wear patterns.
