Maintenance Tips

Mowing:
Tall Fescue with Bluegrass should be mowed at 1.5 - 3 inch.
Mow at higher setting during summer months.

Watering:
 
During prolonged summer dry periods, best maintained with deep,
infrequent irrigation to encourage a deep, healthy root system.

 Fertilization:
Fertilize at an annual rate of 3-5 lbs. actual N per 1,000 sq.ft.
Always read and follow the instructions on your fertilizer packaging.
 Application of fertilizer is discouraged during the summer months.
 Summer fertilization of tall fescue generally increases the incidence of
both brown patch and pythium blight turf diseases.
Nitrogen-based fertilizers are best applied during the cooler months of spring and fall.
Should you wish to improve the overall turf color during the warmer months,
 you should consider the use of iron-based fertilizers.
