GreenVelvet, Inc. can provide you with weekly lawn mowing service. Frequent mowing will help prevent weeds and keep your lawn healthy and beautiful. Your lawn will stay healthier if it is not cut too short. Grass blades make sugar that feeds the roots, which makes more grass plants, thus thickening the turf.

Spring/Fall Clean-up is one of the most important things you can do for your lawn. This will help reduce the chances of your lawn having insect problems. Spring and Fall clean-up prevents lawn disease and provides a base for a beautiful lawn.

To have a healthy lawn it is important to Fertilize. The irregular weather patterns of the past year have been disastrous for some lawns. Grasses require at least 16 essential elements in their diets. Most of these elements are available from the plants in the surrounding environment. But the growth demands of today's lawns usually mean that a homeowner must help Mother Nature along.

Aerating may be the single most important thing you can do for your grass.

Your soil is an ecological environment in which your lawn lives.  Roots need moisture, oxygen, space and proper nutrients to grow.  Grass that grows in healthy soil requires less watering, fertilizing and upkeep and is far more tolerant of abuse. 

Good aeration breaks and loosens the soil to a depth of 2 to 3 inches producing finger-size holes, spaced at 8-12 holes per square foot.  These holes encourage deep root growth by allowing water, oxygen, and organic matter to quickly reach lower root zones.

We have invested in the Hooker^TM brand soft-plug aerator in order to provide you with the most advanced aerating process available.  It lifts and loosens the soil, inflicting less stress on the roots.  Unlike core aeration, the Hooker^TM   eliminates subsurface compaction around and at the bottom of the holes.

The Hooker^TM uses a series of specially shaped tines that pierce and hook under the soil.  Each tine lifts a soil plug of dirt to the surface while loosening the surrounding soil.  The soft plugs of soil disperse quickly, spreading nutrients over the surface.  No unsightly hard plugs of soil accumulate on your lawn and the finger-sized holes remain.
