Houston’s heat is no joke, but your lawn can thrive!
Houston summers can be brutal, especially for your lawn. High temps, intense sun, and irregular rainfall can cause grass to brown and stress your landscape. But with a bit of preparation, your yard can beat the heat.
Start by mowing a little higher—longer grass blades provide natural shade to soil and roots. Water deeply, but less frequently, to encourage strong root growth. And always schedule early morning watering to prevent evaporation.
Quick tips for summer lawn prep:
- Raise your mower blade to 3–4 inches
- Water 1–2 times per week, early morning
- Use a slow-release fertilizer before peak heat
- Mulch to retain soil moisture and reduce weeds
With proper care and the help of Houston lawn professionals, your yard can stay green, lush, and summer-ready.
