Fall Fertilization It's not too late to schedule Grosh's Lawn Service's fall fertilization for your turf! Researchers are now finding that a fall fertilization program is creating additional benefits that can carry well into the next year. A study by The Ohio State University shows that overall plant/turfgrass physiological health is improved for the following season with a fall fertilizer application (when compared to turf that is untreated at the end of the growing season). Fall fertilization also helps turf recover more quickly from summer stress, maintaining a green turf color into early winter while providing quick green-up in the spring. Fall fertilization also can help the turf grow deeper roots during the spring according to J. Copeland. Call Tom at 301-842-0062, or send him an email, to get on the fall fertilization list! For their second stop of the day, Washington County Maryland's Department of Business Development's Prize Patrol visited Grosh's Lawn Service, their first mobile unit. Tom informed the Department that his new business vehicle was a local purchase at Younger Toyota! Magnificent Mulch Mulch is much more than good looks The aesthetic benefits that mulch brings to your landscape are obvious, but have you ever wondered what purposes it serves beyond beautification? In addition to improving the looks of your property, mulching is one of the best ways to protect and improve the health of your landscape plants. Applied properly by Grosh's Lawn Service, mulch will benefit both your plants and soil in the following ways: It will help to retain soil moisture. It will reduce weed growth. It will maintain a more even soil temperature throughout the year. It will help to prevent soil erosion. It will prevent crusting of soil surfaces to improve water absorption. It will protect tree and shrub trunks from lawn equipment damage. It will encourage the expansion of root systems. Since mulch is so beneficial, it can be tempting to go overboard with the application. Too much of it, however, can do more harm than good. At Grosh's Lawn Service, we make sure that the total mulch depth never exceeds 4", and we never pile it up against trunks and stems. This subjects trunks and stems to constantly moist conditions, which can encourage diseases to develop. For a great-looking landscape and healthier, more beautiful trees and shrubs, mulch really is marvelous! To learn more, give us a call at 301.842.0062.
