North Carolina summers are no joke—but with a little care, your lawn can still look great! Here’s how to protect it when the temps rise:
1. Water Smart – Water early in the morning, once or twice a week, with deep soaking to encourage strong roots.
2. Raise Your Mower Blades – Keep your grass at 3–4 inches tall to help shade the soil and retain moisture.
3. Recycle Your Clippings – Mulch your grass clippings instead of bagging—they act like a free lawn conditioner.
4. Easy on the Fertilizer – Wait for cooler days to fertilize. Too much in the heat can do more harm than good.
5. Stay on Pest Patrol – Heat-stressed lawns attract bugs—spot and treat problems early!
