Like we all know that every living being needs water to survive and your lawn is no exception to that. The lawn processes more and more water as the weather heats up. Unfortunately, at the same time that the lawn is using more water through the summer, there’s usually less natural rainfall available. Your lawn may go dormant or suffer serious thinning from lack of grass care, without a helping hand in the form of extra sprinkling. Dragging that hose around, or turning on the irrigation system, is one of the most important things you can do to ensure a healthy environment for growing grass. But most homeowners due to lack of time are unable to take care of their lawn as well as they should.
The best thing to do in this regards is to call for professional lawn care Simpsonville services such as the acclaimed Curb Appeal Lawn Care. Some of our services include mowing, weed eating, edging and blowing; hedge trimming; mulch and pine needles; aerating and seeding; leaf removal/property clean-ups and so forth. It is just a matter of a call and the professionals will visit your doorstep and carry out the task without any hassle on your part.
Watering the Lawn- Grass blades are covered with tiny holes or pores called stomata. Like we all know that plants perform “photosynthesis” in order to produce food which involves plants absorbing water mixed with nutrients and minerals through the roots. Excess water and turf “waste material” (oxygen) are released through the pores on the grass blades which is called transpiration. Without enough water, the whole cycle soon slows or stops eventually. Transpiration replaces oxygen in the atmosphere and releases water vapor into the air. It’s this process that allows a lawn as small as 50′ by 50′ to produce enough oxygen to support a family of four.
A Big Difference made by Soil- The soil type basically affects how often or how long you need to water. For instance, sandy soils absorb water fast and but lose it just as quickly, loamy soils are ideal because they have a good absorbing rate and can also hold water well, clay soils can be hard to water because they take the water in very slowly. On the other hand, clay holds water well and dries more slowly than other soil types. The average lawn consumes about 1” of water per week). When there isn’t enough rain to meet the need, watering grass care is the answer.
Soil dries out from the surface downward. Watering deeply encourages deeper rooting of the lawn. Water each area long enough to saturate the soil to a depth of 6” (that’s about 1” of water per area per week). If possible, apply most of this 1” of water at one time. It is better to hand over the task to a professional for getting the best results.
