Treating Heat Stress

on YOUR Lawn

BEST TIME TO WATER THE LAWN

-Confirm there is not another problem like grubs or chinch bugs (they eat roots of grass tuning lawn brown)

-Water deeply and infrequently (2-3 times per week 20-25 mins per zone)

-Refrain from mowing lawn to low.

-Keep mower blades sharp like a knife.

-Avoid compacting soil further. (No heavy machines on lawn during heat spell or drought)

-Allow lawn to go dormant if long periods of severe heat are forecasted.

-Consider over seeding in early spring to establish thick roots mass.
