      Oak Ridge, Tennessee FAQs

      Traditional lawn care services can run up to $1500 yearly. Sunday offers a more affordable option with custom lawn care plans starting between $55-100, based on your lawn size. These plans include custom lawn fertilizer, a soil test kit with analysis, options for weeds and pests, and unlimited access to expert Yard Advisors. By choosing Sunday, you can save hundreds of dollars each year while still getting a greener lawn.

      For Oak Ridge lawns, mow once a week during peak growing season. Never remove more than 1/3 of the grass blade height at once. During hot summer months, mow less often and set your mower higher to reduce stress. Wait at least two days after applying Sunday products before mowing to allow nutrients to absorb properly.

      Common Oak Ridge lawn care mistakes include cutting grass too short, which invites weeds. Overwatering creates ideal conditions for lawn disease in Tennessee's humidity. Applying fertilizer during extreme heat or before rain reduces effectiveness. Ignoring soil testing leads to guesswork about what your lawn truly needs. Many also mow right after fertilizing, washing away nutrients.

      The 1/3 rule means never cutting more than one-third of your grass height in a single mowing. This keeps your grass healthier by allowing enough leaf surface for photosynthesis. Taller grass develops deeper roots, helping lawns handle Tennessee's hot summers better. This practice also reduces stress on grass, making it more resistant to weeds and diseases.

      For a healthy, green Oak Ridge lawn, start with a soil test to understand your lawn's needs. Apply Sunday's custom fertilizers at the right times, focusing on spring and fall. Keep grass at the proper height during summer heat. Water deeply but infrequently for deep root growth. Consider fall overseeding with grass types that thrive in Tennessee.

      For Oak Ridge lawns, follow a seasonal plan. Apply pre-emergent weed control in spring and begin regular fertilizing. During summer, raise your mowing height and watch water needs. Fall is ideal for overseeding cool-season grasses and applying fertilizer before winter. Follow Sunday's custom plan with nutrient applications timed for Tennessee's climate.
