THIS WEEK’S FIELD TIP

Remember, when mowing, never cut more than one-third of the blade of grass. Mowing more than 1/3 of the shoot height will significantly lower the rate of photosynthesis. This will create a shallower root system which will weaken the turf. The best time to renovate fields is in the fall. Use local resources such as agriculture departments at schools to determine the best type of grass for your region. Always water your turf deeply to encourage a stronger and deeper root system. And, light, frequent waterings can cause crabgrass and other weeds to develop.
