Summer Lawn Tips From a Lawn Care Pro
Learn these summer lawn tips from a lawn care professional to help your lawn reach it's full potential this summer. Mowing, watering, and weed control all play a part in a lawn looking great in the hot summer months. Mowing height is one area that I really feel people make mistakes that can turn a lawn brown. Fertilization and fertilization timing is also important. That timing can change depending on the type of grass. I am showing a bermuda grass lawn in this video. Enjoy!

    It’s just so hot. I water every day 45 minutes almost a zone or at each sprinkler head on 2 centipede yards. It’s so hot. I can’t keep dry spots out of my yard. What recommendations would you use to ease dry spots? If I don’t water, my lawn will not make it. 3 months with no significant rain. Brother I think you should do a series where you have Bermuda talk and you’re going throughout the entire season of Bermuda treatments then Saint Augustine, then centipede, etc. I have centipede lawn and there’s not a lot of information available aside from my Facebook group to try and get information for it.

    • @treed3476
      @treed3476 День тому

      I don't have the same grass as you. I water my lawn every morning for 15 minutes per zone then I water for 6 minutes per zone at 11, 1, 3 I might change those times a little bit ill see when it gets hot here next week Upper 90s and wind. Might go the 6 minutes at 11, 2, 5. It's not really watering the lawn at those time it's just like air conditioning the lawn cooling the grass down and the top soil layer. Just like running through the sprinklers on a hot day to cool you off it does the same for the grass. Also I need to adjust sprinkler for coverage it's missing a spot now so will be doing that today. Hopefully it helps can try it out a few weeks and see.

    Thank you for the video. I’m in Texas and have a mixture of Bermuda and St Augustine; I’m going full St. Augustine. I find with St. Augustine, I have less weed and insect problems. I keep the height at 3-3.5 inches in the summer and mow 2-3 times per week to get the spread/thickness going. The active growth of St Augustine is great the hotter the temp gets. I also plug other area using a ProPlugger from my established lawn and this helps the spread tremendously.
