Everybody loves a shortcut, right? Especially when it comes to dirty, back-breaking work like laying sod.
We can sense you pondering how to lay your new sod and be done in time to grab a steak dinner and fit in nine holes of golf.
If you’ve decided to add a fire pit to your patio and all you can think about now is s’mores, we don’t blame you.
In fact, save us a couple, will you?
Meanwhile, there are a few things to keep in mind, besides watching for a sale on graham crackers.
Some pool mistakes are obvious, like walking too close to the edge in high heels carrying a tray of crab puffs.
Other mistakes are sneakier, like installing the wrong kind of plants or goofing up your ground cover.
Nobody brags about their beautiful yellow or brown lawn. Cars don’t slow down to admire yellow grass.
Still, it happens to the best of us.
So, your grass is turning yellow. Or your grass is turning brown.
Whyyyyyyyyy???!!!
Don’t panic. Here’s what might be happening out there, and what you — or your lawn care company — should do about it.
When little kids are coloring and it’s time to do the grass, they don’t grab the brown crayon.
Even preschoolers know grass is supposed to be green.
When you look out at your once-thriving lawn and see brown, it’s time to grab your green crayons. (If only it were that easy, right?)
Dead grass? Here’s how to fix it.
Nothing against your neighbors, but some days you just want a little privacy.
Maybe you want to weed the garden in your pajamas. Or practice your new yoga moves without an audience. Or play air guitar without the kids next door laughing at you.
You’re too tired to build a fence. But the right plants can offer just the privacy you need.
You’ve been daydreaming about artificial turf again, haven’t you?
Who wouldn’t? No mowing. No weeding. No fertilizing.
You’re picturing the neighbors, all jealous. Maybe that boat you’d finally have time for if you didn’t spend every weekend working on your lawn...
The great thing about big box stores like Lowe’s and Home Depot is you can buy just about anything there.
Swing over on a Saturday morning for a couple pieces of plywood and some sandpaper and you can also grab a faucet seal, a spice rack, and a plant for the porch.
Hey, look, they have sod for sale!
Hmmmm, it looks pretty handy, all rolled up and ready to go. And the backyard does look kind of ratty…
Pause, please. Anytime you buy sod, from anywhere, you should ask a few key questions.
When you get a first look at an impressive new landscaping project, it’s often the pretty green stuff you gawk at first.
Majestic palm trees, maybe, or striking tropical croton.
But what makes a project really work is the skill and labor behind the scenes.
Expert drainage work. Precision hardscape. Attention to detail that comes from the landscape designer camped out on site with his laptop computer day after day, supervising every detail.
