What Could Be Causing Those Brown (or yellow, pink, and red patches)?
Why is my lawn failing in some areas and not in others? Why does my grass look like straw? These are just some of the concerns we hear each year about people’s lawns.
When it comes to grass, small problems can quickly develop into big problems. Rarely do these problems resolve on their own. Whether it’s one patch of grass or an entire yard or estate, Belknap Landscape will evaluate the cause, and recommend proactive and preventative management steps to ensure disease and pest issues are resolved.
Once identified, we’ll confirm the issue via samples and soil tests, and recommend an appropriate treatment plan that may include:
- Soil pH level adjustment with the help of amendments for added nutrients.
- Application (or change of) fertilization with organic or synthetic lawn solutions (including our fully organic Liquid Compost Extract also known as Compost Tea) that are suited to your property’s grass.
- Watering and irrigation to promote deep, strong, and drought-resistant roots.
- Grass seed, patch, or repair products specifically suited for your yard’s sun exposureand pH levels.
- Dethatching to remove water-restricting organic yard waste.
- Aeration to encourage oxygen circulation, drainage, and water/nutrient and fertilizer absorption.
- Insect identification and verification (of harmful vs. beneficial beetles, grubs, bugs, and worms).
- Careful, meaningful selection and application of pesticides by state-licensed and fully trained Belknap Landscape applicators.
- 100% compliance with the New Hampshire Shoreline Protection Act for fertilizer and pesticide use.
Let the Belknap Plant Health experts provide a strong, healthy and beautiful lawn for you.
