5 Common Lawn Questions and Answers
 
1.
Q: How should I water my lawn?
A: You should water deeply and infrequently. The goal for most lawns is 1" per week, and it is best if that is delivered "all at once" instead of over several days.

2.
Q:When Should I Cut My Grass?
A: Lawns should be maintained at a height of around 3 inches. Cutting grass too short will cause lawn stress and will also increase the amount of weeds in your lawn.

3
Q: How do I level a bumpy lawn?
A: You can fill in low spots with a one quarter inch layer of topsoil or sand. You may have to gradually fill in a low spot to avoid smothering the grass. Another alternative is to lift the sod with a shovel, fill with sand or topsoil, and replace the sod.

4.
Q: When Do I Apply Lawn Fungicides?
A: They should be applied May - August as needed. We have both granular and liquid.

5.
Q: How Often Should My Lawn Be Aerated?
A: Hudgins recommends having your lawn aerated prior to any seeding. Spring and fall are both okay or just fall.
