Healthy lawn


Almost all Americans have a spacious lawn area either at the front or the back of the house. My question: What is the best way to take care of your green lawn?

I think using a mulching mower, handpicking weeds, and watering deep but not often helps maintain a green lawn, also make sure that you mark the brown patches/most stepped on patches so you dont stump on the tender shoots.

Use liquid lawn feed, although an organic feed is the best.

ok, that Sea World lawn care section is great BUT, what can u do with burned lawn spots from your neighbor's dogs who do "things" there?

I have some bermuda here, too in the front lawn. Supposed to be drought resistent, but there's some downsides- they grow on underground runners, so they can theoretically take over areas where you might not want it. Believe it or not, San Diego's Seaworld website has some info on local lawn care, lol! www.seaworld.org

Bermuda is the way to go for San Diego. With hot weather ... little to no rain. I think Troy Pines has Bermuda Greens.

Mchowdry- ooo you regionalist, not TRUE!

T3mah- depends on the type of grass and soil. There's usually university extentions for agriculture in your state that will give good advice for your region. What works well in one area will ruin a lawn elsewhere. What state are you in and what type of grass, I'll do a websearch for u

'car' or 'care'?

If you live down south, many people have a car on their lawn :)
