Professional lawn care services can run up to $1,500 per year. Sunday's custom plans start at $55 for your first box and include pesticide-free nutrients, a free soil analysis, and expert Yard Advisor support. Most people save hundreds compared to traditional services.

Lawn service typically means hiring pros to mow, trim, and maintain your yard. Lawn care focuses on feeding and nurturing the grass itself through fertilization, weed management, and soil health. Sunday helps you handle lawn care yourself with custom nutrient plans shipped to your door.

Never cut more than one-third of your grass height at a time. Mowing too short stresses the turf and invites weeds. Keep your mower on a higher setting and let those roots grow deep. Your lawn will thank you with thicker, more resilient grass.

Water first so your lawn absorbs nutrients better. Apply fertilizer, then pull or spot-treat weeds. Mow on a high setting (remember the 1/3 rule). Finally, overseed thin areas to crowd out future weeds. Spacing applications 7 to 10 days apart keeps things balanced.

Mow high, water deeply but infrequently, and leave grass clippings on the lawn (free nutrients). A custom fertilizer plan removes guesswork by delivering what your soil actually needs. Over time, healthier soil means less work and a yard that practically takes care of itself.

Stay off frozen or snow-covered grass to prevent compaction and disease. Spread out snow piles so they melt faster. Keep salt away from turf areas to avoid damage. Watch for ice pockets as snow melts, which can signal drainage issues to address come spring.
