Caring for a lawn can take a lot of work, which can be time consuming and energy draining. Whether you are a first time homeowner trying to figure out how to keep your grass alive or if you are someone who takes a lot of pride in a well manicured lawn, Daniel’s Landscaping is here to help.
MOWING:
Perhaps the most basic of lawn maintenance jobs, mowing is also the most important when it comes to keeping the lawn looking nice for the neighbors and having a solid base for all other yard services. It is also one of the more affordable lawn care service options covered by us. When it comes to how often a lawn should be mowed, the focus should be on the length of the grass blades and not on any specific timeline. This is because if grass is cut too short, it can put stress on the lawn and weaken it.
Maintenance
Another basic of lawn care is watering. Watering is particularly important during those hot summer months when grass can easily dry out. A lawn care service company can guide you through the watering techniques needed for your specific grass type and climate conditions. Give a call 732 514-0051 today.
Knowing the type of weeds growing in your lawn can give you insight on how to best attack them. It is very difficult for weeds to grow in prosperous lawn environments, so taking good care of your lawn is another great place to start to fight off weed growth.

Tips for Proper Mowing:
The amount of sun and water a lawn has gotten can determine how fast grass grows in a given time period. Additionally, the faster that grass grows, the more often it needs to be cut.
Maintain a high cut.
A good rule to consistently follow is the One-Third Rule. One must never cut blades of grass more than one-third of their height.
Recycle grass waste.
Never send them to the dump. Grass clippings are extremely beneficial organic matter.
Switch up the direction.
Switch up the direction in which you cut each time.
Keep Blades Sharp.
Make sure your mower blades are sharp.
