How To Take The Best Care Of Lawns In The Extreme
Summer Heat Days?

  • The general heat that used to surround us during
    the hot summer months was unbearable enough. And
    now with the global warming situation and extreme
    heat waves, things have gone out of control. But
    we still have to try and take the best care of
    ourselves and our surroundings, including our
    precious lawns.
  • Maintaining a lush, green lawn during summer is
    quite a chore. Though the ideal solution is to
    hire a affordable lawn care service in Clarence ,
    there are some tasks you can try on your own.
    Look below for the basic hot weather lawn care
    tips to keep yards thriving through the summer.
  • Lawn Care In Hot Weather
  • Mowing During Summer Time
  • Here are a few things to keep in mind when it
    comes to summer lawn mowing.
  • 1. Dont Cut Grass Too Short
  • One of the most common lawn care mistakes
    homeowners make is to cut the grass too short in
    the summer. When the turf is mowed too short, it
    interferes with the grasss ability to generate
    sufficient energy for growth. 
  • On the flip side, if you cut the grass at its
    optimal height, the roots will be able to
    strengthen themselves better. Usually, 3 to 4
    inches is an ideal grass height during heat
    waves.
  • 2. Avoid Mowing In Drought
  • If your area is experiencing drought, avoid the
    mowing task. Lawns undergo much stress during
    droughts and have a hard time recovering from the
    cuts.

  • Watering Lawns During Heat Wave
  • Some homeowners erroneously believe that the best
    lawn care in extreme heat is to overwater. But
    that is not so. 
  • If the soil is always wet, the turf root will
    become oxygen deprived and become more
    susceptible to diseases. Here are a few tips to
    keep in mind while watering lawns in summer.
  • 1. Water Early
  • The perfect time to water lawns is before 10 am.
    The cooler temperatures and subtle breezes of the
    early morning slow down the evaporation.
  • 2. Water Deeply
  • You should water enough to keep the roots wet for
    a long time. But dont water it again until the
    grass has dried. 
  • 3. Dont Water Daily
  • Your yard needs only an inch of water per week.
    So, there is no point in watering your lawn
    daily. Remember that one inch of water includes
    rainfall too.
  • Aeration Of Heat Stressed Lawns
  • After mowing and watering, try aerating your
    lawns too. This lawn care step will free up space
    for air, water, and other nutrients to reach the
    soil and roots of the turf. 
  • Final Words
  • Maintaining lawns in summer can be quite vexing,
    especially during long heat waves. Apart from
    taking the above lawn care steps, hire any
    top-rated lawn maintenance service in Clarence
    like SS Landscaping NY. Their lawn care and
    maintenance will leave you with a lush, green
    lawn shielded from the heat stress.
