      Temple, Texas FAQs

      Here are the key lawn care practices for Temple, TX:

      • Mow St. Augustine or Bermuda grass at 2.5-3 inches height
      • Water deeply 1-2 times per week, about 1 inch total
      • Fertilize in early spring, late spring, and early fall
      • Control weeds before they establish in spring
      • Aerate clay soils in spring
      • Overseed thin areas in early fall
      • Adjust mowing height higher during summer heat stress
      • Monitor for signs of chinch bugs and grubs

      These practices align with Sunday's approach of working with nature while promoting healthy, resilient lawns through proper maintenance timing and techniques.

      Water deeply 1-2 times per week in the early morning, providing about 1 inch of water total per week. During peak summer heat (July-August), you may need to water 2-3 times per week. Reduce watering during rainy periods or when temperatures are cooler.

      For Temple lawns, maintain St. Augustine grass at 2.5-3 inches and Bermuda grass at 1.5-2 inches. Keep blades sharp and never remove more than 1/3 of the grass height in a single mowing. Raise height slightly during summer heat stress.

      For Temple lawns, apply fertilizer in early spring (March), late spring (May), and early fall (September). These timings support active growth periods while avoiding summer heat stress. Skip applications during drought or when grass is dormant.

      To prevent weeds in Temple lawns:

      1. Maintain thick, healthy turf through proper mowing height and regular fertilization
      2. Spot treat existing weeds promptly with Sunday's Dandelion Doom
      3. Fill bare spots quickly with appropriate grass seed
      4. Avoid overwatering which can encourage weed growth
      5. Remove weeds by hand before they go to seed

      Common lawn pests in Temple include:

      Chinch bugs - Damage appears as yellowing patches that turn brown. Manage by reducing thatch and maintaining proper mowing height.

      Grubs - Cause wilting grass and easy-to-pull turf. Control through proper watering and Sunday's pest control products.

      Fire ants - Create mounds throughout lawn. Use Sunday's Ant Adios for targeted control.

      Armyworms - Cause brown patches from feeding. Treat with Sunday's Bug Doom when active.

      For Temple lawns, St. Augustine and Bermuda grass are best suited to handle the hot climate. St. Augustine thrives in partial shade and has good heat tolerance, while Bermuda excels in full sun with excellent drought resistance. Both grasses can withstand heavy foot traffic and recover well from stress.

      Using eco-friendly lawn care methods in Temple benefits the environment by reducing chemical runoff into local waterways, supporting beneficial insects and soil microorganisms, and minimizing water waste. These practices create healthier, more resilient lawns that require less maintenance while protecting people, pets and local ecosystems.
