Choose the Right Type of Grass

• If youre starting afresh with your lawn, be
  sure to choose the proper type of grass or grass
  alternative for your yard. Depending on your
  climate, annual rainfall, and soil type, certain
  types of grass will be easily cared for in your
  yard while others will die easily. Bountiful,
  Utah, is particularly dry compared to other
  climates, so consider grass types and
  alternatives that do well without much water.
  Kentucky bluegrass is ideal for lawns in the
  Northwest, as it recovers well from droughts,
  cold, and foot traffic.

• It generally takes only thirty days to sprout.
  Tall fescue, a cool-season perennial from Europe,
  is the best option for Northeastern states and
  thrives when planted in September. Its deep roots
  help it to survive foot traffic and droughts. As
  for Southeastern states, Zoysia grass and St.
  Augustine grass grow the best. These particular
  grass types thrive in dry, sunny areas and should
  be planted in April. Bermuda grass and buffalo
  grass are the best choices for Southwestern and
  midwestern states. Both types are easily cared
  for in sunny areas and grow well when planted in
  April or May.

Determine How Often to Water Your Lawn

• Depending on your location, your lawn may
  benefit from an irrigation system, sprinkler
  system, or regular watering. However, certain
  soils and grasses do just fine on their own
  without any water care aside from occasional
  rain. These soils and grasses are great options
  for homes in Bountifuls dry climate. If your
  yard does require watering, most yards benefit
  the most from water between five and ten AM. If
  youre not sure how much water your yard
  requires, dont risk underwatering or
  overwatering. Both scenarios can be unhealthy and
  even detrimental for your lawn. Instead, contact
  a professional lawn care company, such as All
  Seasons Landscaping lawn care in Bountiful, to
  give you specific details on your local watering
  recommendations and install any necessary
  watering systems to care for your yard.

Mow Your Lawn Carefully Regularly

• Many people in Bountiful go weeks or even
  months without mowing their lawn due to weather
  conditions or mere forgetfulness. As a result,
  they tend to hack their grass as short as
  possible when the time to mow does come. However,
  cutting your grass too short can cause a lot of
  problems. Grass that is too short puts extra
  pressure on the turf, which can negatively impact
  your yard in the long run. Ideally, you should
  adjust your mower blades to cut off ? of your
  grasss length. Be sure to care for your lawn
  mower by cleaning the undercarriage regularly to
  prevent pulling or tearing your grass.
