As the mower head rises, you also help promote healthier root growth with each pass. Higher grass blades also create a natural soil cover that shields the ground from the sun&#8217;s rays, which helps retain valuable moisture during dry periods and suppresses the growth of weed seeds.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">As part of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/royallawnut.com\/locations\/lawn-care-layton\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">long term lawn health strategies<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\">, ensure that your mower blades are regularly sharpened.

Beyond quick-fix artificial fertilizers, instead of becoming addicted to fast-acting synthetic stimulants, your year-round strategy should be to enjoy the long-term benefits of healthy soil.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Top dressing your lawn with a light layer of organic compost is one of the best things you can do for your lawn.

Foot traffic, mowing, and even just natural rainfall can, over time, compress the soil, squeezing out those air pockets that roots need to breathe and grow.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Annual aerating is necessary to fight these problems. In this action, small plugs of soil are pulled up to reduce compaction and make it easier for air and water to reach the root zone.
