Top Tips for a Healthy Lawn — With a Little Help from Green Acres Greenhouses and Landscaping
A lush, green lawn doesn’t happen by accident — it takes the right balance of care, timing, and expertise. Whether you’re starting fresh or trying to bring your grass back to life, here are some top tips for a healthy lawn, brought to you by the pros at Green Acres Greenhouses and Landscaping.
1. Mow Smart
Avoid cutting your grass too short. Keeping it at 2.5 to 3 inches helps shade the roots, retain moisture, and block out weeds. And remember to keep those mower blades sharp — dull blades tear rather than cut, stressing your lawn.
2. Water Wisely
Deep, infrequent watering is the key. Aim for about 1 inch per week, preferably in the early morning. Watering too often or at night can promote disease and shallow roots.
3. Fertilize with Purpose
Feeding your lawn the right nutrients at the right time makes all the difference. Spring and fall are key seasons for fertilizing, but your soil may need specific treatment. Green Acres Greenhouses and Landscaping offers soil testing and custom fertilization plans to get your grass exactly what it needs.
4. Aerate and Overseed
Compacted soil can choke your lawn. Aeration opens up the ground, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots. Follow up with overseeding to fill in thin spots and build a more resilient turf.
