      Bowie, Maryland FAQs

Sunday's custom lawn plans start at $55 per season, offering a more affordable option with personalized fertilizer, optional weed control, and expert guidance - all delivered directly to your door throughout the growing season.

      When choosing lawn care in Bowie, MD, consider these key factors:

      1. Evaluate your lawn needs: Size, grass type, and specific issues like weeds or bare spots
      2. Compare service options: Full-service vs DIY approaches
      3. Review pricing structures: Per visit vs seasonal plans
      4. Check credentials: Licensing and insurance
      5. Assess environmentally-friendly practices: Products and methods used
      6. Verify service frequency: Matches your lawn's seasonal needs

      Here are affordable lawn care tips for Bowie, MD:

      1. Mow high at 3-4 inches to promote deeper roots and shade out weeds
      2. Water deeply but infrequently to encourage drought tolerance
      3. Leave grass clippings to recycle nutrients
      4. Test soil before fertilizing to avoid over-application
      5. Spot treat weeds rather than blanket applications
      6. Overseed in fall to naturally crowd out weeds
      7. Follow a regular fertilizer schedule using Sunday's custom plans

      These practices save money while promoting a healthier, more resilient lawn that requires fewer inputs over time.

      In Bowie, MD, mow your lawn every 5-7 days during peak growing season (spring and fall) and every 7-10 days in summer. Keep grass height between 3-4 inches and never remove more than 1/3 of the blade length in a single mowing. Mow less frequently during drought or dormancy periods.

      For Bowie, MD, the key lawn care seasons are:

      Early spring (March-April): Initial fertilization and pre-emergent weed control Late spring (May): Fertilize and address weeds Summer (June-August): Light fertilization and pest management Fall (September-October): Primary fertilization, overseeding, and weed control Winter (November): Final fertilization before dormancy

      Here's how to maintain a healthy lawn in Bowie, MD:

      1. Water deeply 1-2 times per week, providing 1-1.5 inches total
      2. Keep grass at 3-4 inches tall to develop strong roots
      3. Apply fertilizer based on your soil test results and seasonal needs
      4. Spot treat weeds as they appear rather than blanket applications
      5. Overseed thin areas in early fall when temperatures are mild
      6. Aerate compacted soil in spring or fall to improve root growth
      7. Monitor for common pests like grubs and treat only when necessary

      Here are key lawn care mistakes to avoid in Bowie, MD:

      1. Cutting grass too short - keep height at 3-4 inches
      2. Overwatering - stick to 1-1.5 inches per week
      3. Fertilizing at wrong times - avoid summer applications
      4. Ignoring soil health - test before applying nutrients
      5. Using wrong grass types for the region
      6. Treating all weeds the same way
      7. Mowing with dull blades
      8. Not addressing drainage issues promptly

      To calculate lawn care costs in Bowie, MD, measure your lawn size in square feet by multiplying length by width of each section. Traditional lawn services charge $45-75 per visit based on size. Sunday's custom plans start at $55 per season with multiple deliveries and include personalized fertilizer, soil testing, and expert support.
