Standard St. Augustine grass should be maintained at a height of 4 – 5 inches. Repeatedly mowing at lower heights increases the stress on the lawn, discourages deep rooting, increases the chance for scalping. Mowing too infrequently and watering improperly can cause a thatch buildup.</span></span></li>

The lawn and landscaping is the first thing someone sees when approaching a property and this ‘curb appeal’ is very important to first impressions.</span></span></li>

Many lawns </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica; text-align: justify;">are mowed too short and </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica; text-align: justify;">with a dull mower blade.</span></span></span></li>
<li style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: circle;"><strong style="font-size: 17px;"><u>Pulling Weeds by Hand-</u></strong><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Weeds should be pulled up before they produce seed heads. This is key to weed eradication because if you let those little seed heads mature, they're going to scatter themselves all over leading to a bigger battle.</span></span></li>
<li style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: circle;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><u>Spraying weeds in plant beds and concrete cracks-</u></span><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">T</span></span></span><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">he best way to kill weeds in plant beds is to spot spray with a nonselective herbicide. It will take about a week to shrivel up and die. Then, either weed wack the dead weed to the ground or pull out with your two hands.</span></span></li>
<li style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: circle;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px;"><u>Benefits of Mulch-</u> </span><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em;">Mulching can be one of the most beneficial things you can do for your soil and your plants. </span><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em;">Mulches are a labor saving device. A layer of mulch will help prevent the germination of many weed seeds, reducing the need of herbicides. Mulches also help moderate the soil temperature and retain moisture during dry weather, reducing the need for watering. Mulches protect the soil from the impact of raindrops that can cause crusting. Crusting can prevent the germination of seedlings.</span></span></span></li>

Therefore, a 10 feet by 10 feet garden mulched 3 inches deep wil</span><span style="line-height: 16px;">l require 25 cubic feet of mulch.</span> </span></span></li>
