Asst. County Agent

Many people throughout the
county are having lawn prob
lens. Their lawn is turning yell
low and dying off. Crabgrass is
also infesting many lawns.
This yellowing and dying off
could be due to a lack of water
or fertilizer. The showers which
we've had haven't furnished
much water and the ground
dries out quickly in the hot sun.
Many of you may also be cut
ting your grass too short. The
best height of cut is ia" to o..
This height will permit plenty
of root growth and will also
help to shade out crabgrass.
To find out if your soil needs
fertilizing, have your soil tested.
