How To Keep Your Lawn Healthy During This Summer's Heat Wave

Manifest What you Want, Whenever you Want....

If you have gone anywhere east of the Rocky Mountains in the last month or so, it is surely no secret to you that most of the country has been going through one of the heaviest heat waves on record, and there is no end in sight right now - and while this means many different things for different people, one thing this means for just about everyone is that it is not easy for them to keep their lawn alive! Of course, you will have to force yourself to be at least a little bit resigned with this heat wave, realizing that you will not be able to keep your lawn as lush as you usually like to keep it - but this does not mean that you have to allow your lawn to die; you simply have to know the right steps to take!

First of all, you will have to give your lawn water if you want it to survive this heat, but while you can usually get away with watering at the wrong time of day when it is not so hot, you will be in trouble if you try to water at the wrong time of day right now; the roots of your grass grow during the day, and because of this, early morning is the best time for you to water!

While the roots of your grass will grow during the day, the grass itself will grow at night, so if you have spots in your yard that seem like they are not doing well no matter how much water you are giving them in the morning, try to give them some extra water at night.

And lastly, you should realize that as much as you might not want your grass to die, grass can be regrown far more easily than shrubs and trees - so as much as you focus on your grass, make sure you are focusing on your shrubs and trees that much more!

This summer of oppressive heat will end eventually, but until we reach that point at last, keep these tips in mind in order to keep your grass alive!
