Your Most Commonly Asked Questions

 
• 1) How do I know if my lawn needs fertilizing?
• If your lawn looks yellow or sparse, it's likely time for fertilization. We’ll assess your lawn’s needs and apply the right nutrients at the perfect time for the healthiest growth.
• 2) How can I prevent weeds from taking over my lawn?
• Regular lawn maintenance is key. Pre-emergent weed control treatments in early spring, combined with proper mowing and fertilization, will keep weeds from gaining a foothold in your yard.
• 3) Is aeration important for your lawn?
• Yes! Aeration helps break up compacted soil and allows water and nutrients to reach deeper roots. It’s especially important for lawns with heavy foot traffic or clay-heavy soil, which are common in Waycross.
• 4) What’s the best way to deal with brown patches?
• Brown patches are often caused by improper watering, grass disease, or pests. We can diagnose the problem and provide tailored solutions like proper irrigation, disease treatment, or pest control.
• 5) Can you help with lawn drainage issues?
• We offer solutions like grading, trenching, and installing French drains to improve your lawn’s drainage and prevent waterlogged areas.
 

Some Tips for Taking Care of Your Waycross Lawn

Here are some common tips we provide our customers when we're not around. Get your grass in great shape by:

 
• Watering: Water early in the morning to prevent evaporation. Deep and infrequent watering promotes strong roots.
• Mowing: Cut grass above 2.5 to 3 inches to prevent weeds and retain moisture.
• Fertilization: Apply slow-release fertilizer in spring and fall and spread them over the year.
• Weed Control: Use pre and post-emergent herbicides to prevent and kill weeds like crabgrass.

Why Choose The Best Lawn Care Experts in Waycross, GA?

Here's what makes K&B Lawncare stand out:

1) The Equipment We Use:

• High-Quality Mowers: Forget the lightweight mowers you might find in stores. We use top-of-the-line Toro mowers that are perfect for any property of any size.
• Toro Turn Mowers: Have a large or complex yard layout? No problem! Our Toro Turn Mowers and edgers are built to navigate around obstacles while maintaining proper cutting practices. We fine-tune the blades and adjust the height based on your grass type to promote healthier growth.

2) How Often We Mow:

• Grass-Cutting On Your Time: We’ll show up on the scheduled days that work best for you. Weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly options are available.

3) How We Mow:

• • Straight Lines: We cut in straight lines and alternate mowing patterns. This prevents grass from growing in only one direction which makes it easier to trim.
  • No Scalping: We make sure to adjust the mower height just right, with above 2 or three inches for most lawns in Georgia, so your grass isn't scalped or damaged.
  • Scalping: Scalping might be necessary only when brown or dead grass, or debris, are present. For most grass types, like Bermudagrass, we recommend scalping in late February to early March.
  • Overlapping Passes: We avoid leaving uncut patches by overlapping passes to ensure your lawn gets a uniform finish.

What We Do

We focus on a few basic principles that work:

• Assessing what’s wrong (Is it thinning grass? Too many weeds? Tall grass? Compacted soil? etc)
• Providing the right treatment for that specific issue
• Keep things affordable

A Recent Example

A couple reached out with a backyard overrun by issues. It was chaotic, but not impossible to fix. After our first visit, we saw three main issues:

• Compacted soil
• Lack of nutrients
• Excessive weed growth

Here’s what we did:

• Aerated the soil to reduce compaction and improve water absorption
• Applied tailored fertilizer treatment to address the lack of nutrients
• Set up a targeted weed control program to destroy over 4 species of weeds

Result: In four weeks, their backyard saw incredible improvement. In just a few visits, their grass looked almost brand new.

Local Lawn Care Advice for Waycross

Taking care of your lawn in Waycross (where most lawns are about 6,000 square feet) is a bit of a balancing act, but with the right steps, it can thrive. Here’s a simple guide that the locals use:

1. Watering: When the summer heat hits hard, a good, slow soak will encourage your grass to develop deeper roots. That’s way better than frequent shallow watering which can leave your lawn vulnerable to the heat.
2. Mowing: Keep your grass at about 3.5 inches. That extra bit of length will help protect the roots from the heat and keep the soil cool and shaded.
3. Fertilizing: In late spring, early summer, and early fall, give your lawn some love with slow-release fertilizing. This keeps it well-fed throughout the growing season, but be careful not to overdo it. Too much fertilizer can actually cause grass burns and other issues.
4. Pest Control: Pests like chinchbugs love to make a home in warm weather, so keep an eye out. If you spot any, try using natural methods like neem oil.
5. Soil Care: Every now and then, think about adding a thin layer of compost to your lawn. It helps loosen up the soil, allowing water and nutrients to reach your grass more easily.

With these tips, your lawn in Waycross can stay healthy and strong, even through the hottest days!

Climate and Location Notes

There are a few things you should know about the climate, soil, and local challenges that affect how well your grass will grow. Here are some quick facts:

1) Best Grass for Waycross:

• Bermuda Grass: Ideal for the hot and humid summers of Waycross. It’s drought-resistant and recovers quickly from wear.
• Centipede Grass: Low-maintenance grass that takes little effort to maintain. It's perfect for homeowners who want an easy-going lawn.
• Zoysia Grass: Slow-growing but tolerant of both heat and moderate cold. Zoysia is a good choice because it's a lot more thick and durable compared to other types.

2) Soil Testing is Essential:

• The soil in Waycross can vary but they're mostly clay or loamy. A soil test will help you determine the pH and nutrient levels which lets you know how much fertilizer it needs and which amendments to apply.
• If your soil is too acidic, consider adding lime to balance it. If it’s too sandy, organic compost or peat moss can improve texture and moisture retention.

3) Fertilization:

• In spring (April to June), we recommend fertilizing with a high-nitrogen fertilizer to promote greener and thicker grass.
• During summer (July to August), switch to a slow-release fertilizer to support your lawn during the hottest months.
• Fall (September to November) is the best time to fertilize with a high-potassium blend to help the grass prepare for winter.
• Avoid fertilizing in winter, as growth slows and nutrients are less absorbed.

4. Weed Control:

• Pre-emergent herbicides are most effective when applied in early spring (early spring) before weeds start to germinate.
• For existing weeds, use a targeted post-emergent herbicide in late spring or early summer, but be careful not to damage your grass.
