As a landscaper in southern California, I came across many of the different grass problems that often plagued homeowners, and learned how to overcome them in order to give a person that beautiful lush lawn that every homeowner loves. In order for grass to grow well, it needs to meet a very specific set of conditions, and when one or more of these conditions are not met, you'll end up with some pretty specific problems. The most common grass problems are [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] thin grass and dead spots. We'll cover both of those in this article.
Grass naturally wants to grow up thick and vibrantly green. But it often encounters problems [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] and obstacles that keep it thin, patchy, and weak. Overcoming these problems is the key to having a beautiful lawn. The only downfall is that some of [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] these problems are systemic, meaning that you might have to make some major changes in order to get your grass to grow back properly. We'll go through the [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] common problems [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] step by step and how to overcome them.
1. Thin Grass. Sometimes grass comes in weak, thin, and patchy. This can be caused by a few different reasons. One of the common things that causes this problem is shade. Often when grass is overshadowed by trees and bushes, it just plain won't grow well. Grass loves sunshine and water. If you deprive it of either, it's not going to do very well and will be thin and patchy. Another thing that causes grass to grow thin and patchy is poor soil conditions. This can sometimes be overcome by fertilization, and sometimes not.
Grass soil needs to have good drainage, be slightly acidic, and have some sandy content to it. If your soil has large clay deposits or rocks, it will cause the grass to grow very poorly. If this is the case, you can try adding gypsum periodically over the course of about three years. This will break up the clay slowly over time. But for clay and rocks, sometimes the only thing you can [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] do is start over with better soil.
A third thing that can cause grass to thin out and lose its lush appeal over time is a lack of aeration. Grass [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] needs to be aerated [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] periodically every few years in order to reestablish proper roots. The aeration will allow the grass roots to decompress from being compacted during sports and other things, and will give them a nice flow of oxygen.
A fourth thing that can cause your grass to be thin and patchy is if you have the wrong kind of grass for your region. Certain grasses prefer some climates more than others. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] Other grasses have been bread for specific regions and conditions in order to more adequately tolerate things like heat and drought. Though most grasses will grow in any of the regions of the United States, they won't thrive in all of those regions and will be thin and patchy unless specifically suited to the particular climate.
2. Dead or Dying Spots. Dead spots are among the most common of grass problems and can be caused by quite [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] a large range [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] of factors. I'll mention them all briefly. Pests of one form or another are among the most common grass killers. Rabbits will eat [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] grass down to its bare nubs and kill whole areas before moving on. If a rabbit is the culprit, you should see rabbit droppings in and around the area of the dead spot. Another culprit for some cases of dead spots is dogs. Dog urine can kill grass and will leave circular dead spots. A third pest that can kill grass is grubs. Grubs are little worms that live beneath the surface and eat the roots of your grass. If this is the case, there shouldn't really be any definite pattern to the dead spots, and the dead grass should pull up easily with no roots. Grub poison can be bought at your local garden center.
Another thing that can easily cause dead spots in your grass is a broken, clogged, or inadequate sprinkler system. Often, without the homeowner knowing it, one of the sprinklers in the system will become clogged or broken, or just plain won't have the pressure to reach to all areas of the grass. When this happens, the grass in the under-watered area will start to die. Either repair the sprinkler, or if it's just inadequate to cover all the areas, then you might have to spend 5 minutes a few times a week watering that specific area by hand.
