7/6/2021
What we’re noticing:
  • It’s continued to be significantly hotter and dryer than normal.

    1. June 2021 was the 2nd hottest June every recorded in the Twin Cities; beat only by 1933 by one average degree. It was 7.1 degrees above average last month.

    2. We’ve also received as little as 25% of our average rainfall over the past two months within our service area

What we’re doing:

  1. We’re putting down our premium slow release granular fertilizer that will wait patiently for the rain we need. When your lawn is ready, it will green up with this fertilizer we’ve supplied

  2. We’re controlling the broadleaf weeds that thrive in these conditions. We’re doing complete blanket applications. We don’t want weeds taking over your lawn

  3. We’re applying our grub preventer to ensure the Japanese Beetle Grubs don’t damage the root system that your turf desperately needs right now

What you can be doing:
  1. Mow as high as your mower will go – if you need to mow at all

  2. Water appropriately (amount and timing are both important!)
