    • Mowing cool-season grasses at 3-4 inches high
    • Testing soil yearly to check nutrient levels
    • Fertilizing based on soil test results
    • Watering deeply but less frequently to encourage deep root growth

    Your Riverton lawn care plan should focus on:

    1. Managing the alkaline soil with appropriate fertilizers

    3. Following a seasonal care schedule for cool-season grasses
    4. Adjusting watering based on Utah's semi-arid climate

    Really like Sunday, because I don't have to remember to buy fertilizer or guess how much. We live in the high desert at 6700 feet with five dogs, and this is the greenest and healthiest my lawn has ever looked. I'll be renewing in the spring for sure! Really appreciated that the initial measurement/location of my property wasn't accurate (thanks a lot, Google Maps), but Sunday quickly caught it and made the necessary corrections and price adjustments.

      Riverton, Utah FAQs

      For lawns in Riverton, UT, aerate once per year in early fall (September-October) when temperatures are mild and grass is in active growth. Clay soils common in the area may benefit from twice yearly aeration - once in spring (April-May) and again in fall. Focus on high-traffic areas that get compacted.

      Here are key lawn care best practices for Riverton, UT:

      Mowing: Keep grass 2.5-3 inches tall and never remove more than 1/3 of blade length per cut.

      Watering: Water deeply 1-2 times per week, applying about 1-1.5 inches total. Water early morning to prevent evaporation.

      Fertilizing: Apply fertilizer in early spring, late spring, summer and fall based on your custom schedule.

      Overseeding: Plant cool-season grasses like Kentucky bluegrass or tall fescue in early fall when temperatures are mild.

      Weed Control: Spot treat weeds in spring and fall. Maintain proper mowing height and healthy grass to naturally prevent weeds.

      Remember to adjust practices based on weather conditions and your specific lawn's needs.

      For a healthy lawn in Riverton, UT:

      Mow grass at 3-4 inches height to encourage deep roots and drought tolerance. Water deeply but infrequently, about 1-1.5 inches per week, ideally before 10am. Follow a custom fertilizer schedule with 4-5 applications during the growing season. Control weeds through spot treatment and maintain thick grass coverage.
