Lawn care

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Scotts Miracle-Gro. All opinions are 100% mine. It’s been so dry here in Southern California that everything in my yard is brown…….. dead and brown. So, where do I go to fix that?? I head to Miracle-Gro Find beauty in the Fall site. I found some really great ideas! What I love about the Miracle Gro site is I type in my zip code and Miracle Gro will help me find plants, shrubs, fruits, herbs and vegetables that will thrive in my area. How AWESOME is that??!!!!!!!! No more guesswork! The site also helps me pick products to feed and care for what I do plant. I really love the Miracle-Gro LiquaFeed Advance Feeder. This stuff makes feeding your garden and yard as easy as watering! (HEY!! I can DO that!!!) Miracle-Gro® LiquaFeed® Advance Feeder. The easiest way to feed and water your garden all at the same time now…

I love doing yard work but man does lawn care sap your energy. With growing season right around the corner it time to get the lawn in top shape so that the grass will grow thick and green. The process to ensure a nice lawn is pretty extensive. The first thing I did was cut the grass pretty low. I then got out my dethatching rake and raked up all of the old grass clippings. The next step in aeration. I went to Home Depot and rented an aerator, this is a lot easier than doing it by hand. I then used some fertilizer that I had seen advertised on Direct.TV. The last important step is to keep your grass watered. Make sure when you cut it, that you don’t cut it to short or you will damage the roots.

Miracle-Gro give me some FALL COLOR in my yard!!!
