    • Water retention
    • Root development
    • Nutrient storage

    Cool-season grasses thrive in Lima's climate. Your lawn care plan should focus on:

    1. Regular mowing during peak growing seasons
    2. Fertilizing in spring and fall

    4. Adding organic matter to maintain healthy soil levels

    The local soil shows good calcium and iron levels, but might need extra phosphorus and potassium for optimal grass growth. Check out our lawn care guides for more tips on managing your Lima lawn throughout the year.

      When choosing lawn care in Lima, OH, consider these key factors: your lawn size, specific needs (like weed control or seeding), and budget. Look for services that provide customized plans based on your local climate and soil conditions. Compare traditional services against DIY options like Sunday that offer expert guidance and convenient delivery.

      Sunday's custom lawn care program is ideal for Lima, OH because it provides tailored fertilizer applications based on your specific soil, climate, and lawn conditions.

      The 1/3 rule states you should never cut off more than one-third of the grass blade length in a single mowing. This maintains grass health by preventing shock and stress. For example, if your grass is 3 inches tall, don't cut off more than 1 inch.

      Here are key maintenance tips for a healthy lawn in Lima, OH:

      1. Mow at 2.5-3.5 inches height and follow the 1/3 rule
      2. Water deeply 1-2 times per week, about 1 inch total
      3. Fertilize 4-5 times during growing season (March-November)
      4. Overseed thin areas in early fall
      5. Control weeds through spot treatment
      6. Aerate compacted soil in fall

      These practices promote deep root growth and a more resilient lawn while working with Lima's climate conditions.

      Here are eco-friendly lawn care practices for Lima, OH:

      1. Water early morning to reduce evaporation
      2. Leave grass clippings as natural fertilizer
      3. Mow high (2.5-3.5 inches) to promote deeper roots
      4. Use targeted spot treatment for weeds instead of broadcast spraying
      5. Test soil before applying fertilizer to avoid over-application
      6. Choose drought-resistant grass varieties
      7. Reduce chemical use by promoting natural soil health

      In Lima, OH, water your lawn deeply 1-2 times per week, providing about 1 inch of water total. Water early morning (before 10am) to reduce evaporation. During hot, dry spells, you may need to water 2-3 times per week. Reduce watering during cooler months or after rainfall.
