Daily watering isn’t always enough to keep your lawn green and can cause dry patches and brown areas. This can be due to the grass not receiving the nutrients it needs. The dead or dry spot is irritating to some extent, particularly when the other portion of the grass is green. One of the most common reasons for the problem is improper nutrition of the soil. MW Lawn & Landscape offers lawn fertilization services to give your grass the nutrients it needs. Our services also help fix patchy areas and promote even growth. It is our objective to fill in those weak places and make your entire lawn turn thick, green, and healthy.
What Are Dry Patches and Why Do They Happen?
Dry or dead spots refer to patches in your lawn where grass is thin, brown, or totally absent. These can be seen in hot weather and even when watering is done. Some common reasons behind these patches include:
Absence of nutrients in the soil
Grass requires important nutrients to flourish. They are not strong without them as they may turn brown or die.
Grass is not evenly watered
When water is not distributed, some parts will end up dry and weak, whereas others will remain healthy.
Excessive foot traffic, or lawn mower damage
Treading or mowing too much can compact the grass, leading to bare spots or brown patches.
Lawn insects or grubs
Lawn insects or grubs attack the grass roots, and it becomes difficult to grow grass and keep it green.
Heat stress or Bad Soil Conditions
Either hot weather or compressed soil can harm the lawn, resulting in dry or dead patches.
Wrong type or amount of fertilizer
Applying incorrect fertilizer or insufficient fertilizer may kill grass rather than nourish it. In most situations, house owners attempt to drain more water into it in an attempt to resolve the problem, yet it is impossible to address the issue with only water. The roots need proper nutrition to grow deeper and stay healthy.
How Lawn Fertilization Can Fix and Prevent These Issues
Fertilization is simply a way of providing your lawn with nutrients that it requires to build up. The key to a healthy lawn is a healthy root system, and in order to nurture healthy roots, they must be provided with the optimum amount of nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus. Professional lawn care services focus on proper fertilization so your grass grows stronger, greener, and more resilient.
Proper fertilization of your lawn will enable you to:
Improve the thickness of the grass
Fertilization will encourage new lawn growth, providing a fuller, denser look.
Correct low color in pale or brown color
Nutrients are used to reestablish the natural green appearance and condition of the lawn.
Help roots grow deeper and stronger
Deep, healthy roots enable your lawn to fight weeds better and to use water and fertilizers more efficiently.
