Taking Care of Your Lawn and Environment

!±8± Taking Care of Your Lawn and Environment

When caring for your lawn, you should in no way ignore the effects that it may have on your immediate environment. You should see to it that the quality of water in your local watershed is not adversely affected by your lawn care methods. Are you wondering how this is possible? What happens is that the superfluous water from your lawn ends up in the lakes, ponds or rivers through various drains. If your lawn water is affected by organic matter or pesticides, it will also seep into the lakes or rivers in the surroundings.

Maintenance of water quality and lawn care is two sides of the same coin. Lawn care and environment care are one and the same thing as a well cared lawn will not be subjected to excess fertilizers, water or pesticides. As a result, this will not flow into the drains and from there on to the rivers or lakes. In other words, if you treat your lawn right, you are also serving your environment. This will help everyone in your society.

Always remember to use the apt quantity of water which is also high in quality for your lawn. The right type of grass is also a pre-requisite for a good lawn. You should exert maximum care not to waste water in the summer months. It is generally found that in residential areas, a large amount of water is spent on lawn care and this result in the soil becoming alkaline. Sprinklers are hugely responsible for the large amount of water used, so some caution is necessary while using these.

Do not water the lawn very frequently but when you do, remember to do it thoroughly. If you want to test your water quality for contaminants, just see whether it is draining off or not. If it does drain, then you do not have to worry about contaminants. If you are using more water on the grass, see that the existing water has seeped into the soil by about 4 or 6 inches. If you have planted new seeds, then regular light watering is okay. Also make sure that the lawn grows well by planting it at the suitable time. Care should be taken as to the time of applying pesticides. This should never be done if it is raining or just before you proceed with the watering.

If you test your soil for finding out the quantity of fertilizer and lime that is needed, you won't face the problem of the excess being carried away into the nearby lakes or ponds. Ideally, you should opt for a nitrate that has a gradual release so that it is not washed into the water. You could also try to have some mulch over the soil to avoid erosion. Also check out the cub cadet mowers and how they can help. All these steps will guarantee a healthy lawn that is also environment friendly.
