Summer is rapidly approaching which means that many of us are busy outside beautifying our yards. �If you want your yard to look good, you have to work hard at it or hire someone else to work hard at it, am I right? �
Truth be told, there are some awesome yard work hacks that will save you a ton of time! �Check these out:
Don�t water daily. �Most backyard plants can be watered less often. �Make a schedule and plan to water your backyard plants 3 times per week. �This should be sufficient to keep them hydrated and you will save time doing it less often.
Keep your grass longer. �Still cut it, but don�t cut your grass quite as short as you may be used to. �Longer grass needs less watering and it�s not as hard on your mower. �However, cutting your grass to your mowers shortest ability helps you not have to mow as often. �This one is personal preference folks.
Use baking soda. �Baking soda isn�t just for the kitchen my friends. �Did you know that it can work well as a weedkiller? �Use a generous layer of baking soda around sidewalks and landscaping rocks as a preventative measure against grass and weeds.
Skip the rake! �That�s right! �Less work for you! �Skip raking up or bagging up your lawn clippings. �These clippings work great for helping to feed and moisturize your yard.
Have fun. �Above anything else, don�t forget that you got a yard for a reason. �To enjoy it! �Don�t get so wrapped up in your plants and fighting weeds that you forget that. �Have fun in your yard, relax in your yard! �Be sure and do these things often and you will never see the yard work as work!
