Professional lawn care services can run up to $1,500 per year. Sunday's first box starts at $55 and includes a custom nutrient plan, free soil analysis, and expert consultations. Full plan costs vary by lawn size and any add-ons you choose.

Never cut more than one-third of your grass height at a time. This prevents stress on your lawn and encourages thicker turf that crowds out weeds. Set your mower to the highest setting and let those blades grow tall and strong.

Yes. Fall fertilizing supports warm-season grasses like Bermuda and St. Augustine as they prepare for cooler months. Apply when temperatures are between 50°F and 85°F and grass is actively growing. Water well before applying and avoid fertilizing right before rain.

Watch for yellowing grass, persistent bare patches, or weeds that keep returning despite treatment. Overwatering can cause fungal issues while underwatering leads to brown, crispy turf. If your lawn looks worse after service visits, something's off.

Mow when your grass reaches about 3 to 4 inches tall. During peak growing season, that might mean weekly cuts. Mow in the morning or evening, never in midday heat. Leave clippings on the lawn to return nutrients to the soil.

Not necessarily. DIY lawn care works well when you have the right plan. Sunday delivers custom nutrients based on your soil and climate, with a schedule that tells you exactly when to apply. If you have a hose, you can grow a thriving yard.
