Good Lawn Care Should Include the Following:

• Mulch: You’ll improve the quality of your soil and prevent weeds. This is also a great way to improve the presentation of your yard, with the use of a richly colored mulch, and helping with weed prevention. 
• Nurture the grass: Notice we don’t say cut the grass. Of course, that’s a part of any professional lawn care maintenance package, but nurturing goes a step deeper. Your grass must be properly aerated, getting the air and nutrients and needs to survive. It’s also important for thatch, a dead plant material that can exist between the blades, to be removed. Thatching and aeration go together in nurturing your grass to full health. 
• Take care of the soil: We don’t see the soil on a daily basis, so it can be easy to overlook. Your soil needs to have its acid levels in proper balance, lest the lawn become unhealthy. Annual testing is the way to monitor this. Not all lawns are suited to provide all the nutrients necessary during a grass’ critical growing season. In circumstances like these, fertilizer can help fill in the gaps. Compost is another way of feeding your grass important nutrients and doing so in a natural and healthy way. 
• Proper Seeding: Is your grass starting to show some unattractive dead spots? It’s time to seed. Even better, is to be ahead of the curve and seed on a cycle that prevents the dead patches of grass from ever occurring. Whether you seed in the spring or seed in the autumn, it’s important that this is done strategically, with an eye for how your grass will present itself over the long haul. 
• Mow, Water & Weed: Don’t think we forgot about the bread-and-butter basics of good lawn care. And even here, the precision with which these chores are done can be the difference between a manageable lawn and a lawn that really pops. It’s tempting to want your lawn cut down sharp, to allow it to last longer between cuts. But cutting the grass too deeply can expose the blades to more disease. Allowing the grass a little more length can provide valuable protection. 

Homeowners can also get in the habit of making sure to mow their lawn in the same direction throughout the entirety of the yard. 

Watering is something else that needs to be done with precision. During a dry run in the summer, it’s easy to just let the sprinklers keep going. That may be necessary at times, but done to excess, it creates soil problems of its own. Furthermore, over-watering the grass denies the roots the chance to develop more strength. 

Very few people really enjoy weeding, but this job is most effective when done regularly and done by natural–rather than chemical–means.
