Experts say August is a pivotal month: a time when small actions make a lasting difference. From hand-pulling to smart mowing, what you do now can decide whether your lawn thrives - or whether weeds claim the season.

August Lawn Update: North Carolina After the Rains

After two straight weeks of steady rain, North Carolina lawns are greener than they've been in months - but wet weather brings its own set of problems. Brown patch fungus is creeping through fescue, weeds like crabgrass and nutsedge are taking advantage of the soft soil, and mowers are working overtime on fast-growing turf. With cooler temperatures holding below 30oC, it's tempting to relax, but mid-August is a pivotal moment for lawn care. Homeowners need to balance mowing, fertilizing, and weed control carefully while preparing for September overseeding. The good news? Smart timing now can set the stage for a healthier, stronger lawn this fall.
