Celebration Bermudagrass Maintenance
SOIL MANAGEMENT
- Soil test every two years.
- Amend soil to maintain pH between 6.0 and 7.0
- Know your soil type!
MOWING
-
Sharpen blades every spring.
-
Keep mowed between .5 to 1.5 inches.
-
Don’t cut of more than 1/3 the blade.
IRRIGATION
-
Don’t Overwater
- Water less in cooler fall months
- About 1 inch a week total irrigation spring & summer
- Water deeply, frequently, and in early AM
WEED CONTROL
-
Pre-emergents prevent weeds from germinating
-
Post-emergents kill weeds after they germinate
-
A thick, lush lawn is the best deterrent to weeds
DISEASE CONTROL
- Overly wet grass + shade = fungus problems
- Apply systemic fungicide to prevent fungus outbreaks
- Use multiple fungicide applications to treat affected areas
INSECT CONTROL
- Use a broad spectrum insecticide that controls chinch bugs
- For a once-a-year treatment, July & August are good months
- Drought-stressed lawns are more susceptible to chinch bug injury
- If using a granular insecticide, water in after application
