Summer weather requires adjustments to mowing heights. Here's what we recommend:
Fescue: 3 - 4”
Bluegrass/Rye: 2½ - 3”
Bermuda/Buffalo/Zoysia: 1½ - 2”
Annual flowers and vegetables can be fed lightly in the heat with a slow release fertilizer like ferti•lome Garden Cote or weekly with ferti•lome All Purpose Water Soluble Plant Food.
In ponds or other standing water use Mosquito Dunks or Mosquito Bits in the water to take care of the larva. For area control spray Bonide Mosquito Beater to kill mosquitoes. Follow up, especially before outdoor activities, with ferti•lome MosquitoGo Insect Granules to keep them away.
