    Q: I don’t really water my Bermuda lawn. Should I keep it a certain length because I don’t water? (opens the original)

    A: As with any plant, heat stresses a lawn. All of them like at least 1″ of water per week and, in fact, need that to maintain vigor. Though we have been getting somewhat ample rainfall lately, when it stays hot and dry, experts recommend raising the mowing height, cutting less height from the grass blades. This leaves more leaf tissue to shade and retain moisture in the soil, thus helping the lawn through heat stress. The recommended height for Bermuda is 1-2″, so stay closer to the 2″ in

    A thoughtful fall task (opens the original)

    Fall is ushered in by shorter days, cooler temperatures, football games all weekend long, and by falling leaves. When late summer is dry, and days that follow stay sunny and cool, we tend to have a more colorful leaf change. Once days begin getting shorter, the chlorophyl needed to turn sunlight into food begins breaking down and pigments of other colors are visible on deciduous trees. Then abcission occurs, which is when the leaf detaches from its stem. Once the show is over however, what are w

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    This summer has been particularly tough on turf. Even established lawns are languished from the high heat and earlier drought. Rainfall has been inconsistent this summer in metro Atlanta, so many lawns have not received that desired inch of water a week. A weak lawn invites pests and diseases, whereas a strong turf can often ward off seasonal challenges.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A: Bottlebrush Buckeyes do tend to turn before many trees in early fall, so due to extreme heat, that may be natural- just early. It could also have to do with a lack of nutrients. It’s too late to fertilize now, but plan to do so in early spring. This native shrub is beloved for its upright, white fluffy flowers in early summer. Flowers are followed by the nut called a buckeye, which are not edible.

    August Turf Tips: Being Waterwise with the Lawn (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The National Weather Service recently made it official - as of the first week of August, Georgia is no longer in a drought. Spring was rough though. April was the peak of this drought, and during that month, meteorologist Christina Edwards reported only 5 days of ‘measurable rainfall’, as recorded at Atlanta’s airport. August arrived, bringing those summer thunderstorms we know so well here in the South. Lawns are welcoming the rain, and homeowners can finally ease off of providing supplem
