In each industry there is a dark corner that everyone tries to avoid and this is where the company myths (that seems to circulate continuously no matter how hard anyone tries to debunk them) live. Here at Stone Made Drives, we aren’t only known for our driveway services and we think that it’s time to end these landscape related myths once and for all. Here are a few of the most common ones…
Myth: Cutting your grass short means that you won’t have to mow it as often
For some reason many home owners presume that the shorter your grass is cut, the longer it will take to grow back, therefore reducing the amount of time you will spend mowing it. Unfortunately, this will likely cause more of a hassle. Generally your grass should be 2-3 inches in height in order to avoid allowing too much sunlight to reach the roots and drying them up.
Myth: Landscaping and design doesn’t make a difference
Landscaping design is a very delicate process that requires a whole bunch of different elements to come together and form one single entity. Sometimes, people do not appreciate the time and effort that goes into this process- however when it comes to reselling a home, a well landscaped exterior can actually make a difference to your selling price and the value of your home.
Myth: You should water your lawn every day when it is warm
When it comes to watering your lawn, more is not better. In fact, it can actually be a very bad decision as if you give your plants too much to drink, they can actually suffer or drown from the over exposure to moisture and liquid. In reality, short but regular bursts of water are all that is needed.
