Here’s what lawn care looks like in Maspeth:

Best Grass Types for Maspeth

Cool-season grasses thrive in Maspeth because they handle the winter chill and summer heat equally well. Here are the main ones:

• Perennial Ryegrass: This fast-growing grass is thick, is durable, and features a lovely deep green color.
• Kentucky Bluegrass: It is dark green and fine, and it does well in fertile soils. It also requires only moderate watering and is hardy enough for heavily used yards.
• Tall Fescue: This is an excellent, drought-resistant alternative to Kentucky bluegrass.
• Fine Fescue: Fine fescue is low-maintenance, drought-resistant, and thrives in poor soil.

When Should You Mow? Cool-season grasses grow fastest in mild weather but go dormant in cold weather. So mow weekly in nice weather in Maspeth, but it’s also important to know when not to mow.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Maspeth

Pests and diseases are a lawn’s archenemy, so stay vigilant. Here are some of the main ones to look out for:

• Grubs: They are actually the larvae of insects but resemble tiny worms. They eat grass roots, leaving brown patches. If you have animals like skunks and racoons digging up your yard, you probably have grubs.
• Brown Patch: This fungal disease thrives in humid conditions, leaving large, discolored patches.
• Snow Mold: Appearing after the snow melts, this fungus creates circular growths, often with dead patches at the center.
• Chinch Bugs: These tiny insects cause yellowing and wilting.
• Dollar Spot: Fungal dollar spot thrives in wet conditions, forming brown or yellow, coin-sized spots.
