Verticutting for Lawns
What is verticutting for lawns in South Florida? When the rainy summer season of Miami has started up once again, it pours down on the properties of its homeowners and landowners alike.
The humidity rises, and lawns get the benefits—and side effects—of the large rainfall. That's Florida, and lawns change along with the weather each year at this time.
Landscaping maintenance and treatment is a must, of course, to prevent any of the dangers of Florida’s natural subtropical environment. Lawns during this time often require special care for them to continue to flourish.

South Florida’s Lawns
A major part of this project is lawn care, which focuses on the beautification of lawns and their specific care, especially with the misconception that grass only lives on water and sunlight. Whether it be a flooded patch of turf, thatch build-up, or even pesky fungus, it comes with the territory of wanting to keep your lawn healthy and pest free, or otherwise, in perfect shape for the neighborhood.
Have a Greener, Healthier Lawn
Vertical cutting, or verticutting for lawns, is a turf care practice meant to ensure the health of high-quality residential, athletic field and sports stadium lawns, by removing thatch (troublesome layers of dead material that naturally accumulate at the topsoil level and prevent proper new growth and moisture retention).
What is the Verticutting Process?
This process is an alternative to scalping, or short shearing, which if done incorrectly can damage or even kill locally used species of luxury turfs and high end sports lawns such as Zoysia and Bermuda grasses.
Due to these grass species being adapted for hotter climates, lawns comprising of their breeds absorb plenty of moisture, and if not properly maintained will develop a layer of thatch, which is a mix of dead blades of grass, roots, and stems that give the turf a spongy texture and interfere with new healthy growth.
Accumulation of thatch keeps turf and grasses from growing in properly, resulting in other conditions such as fungus, dry lawn spots, disease, and insect infestations. But if done once a year, verticutting for lawns can keep them looking as green and healthy as the day it was first laid down.
Less Risks, No Worries
In Florida, this means lessening the risk of various lawn based diseases, such as gray leaf spot fungus and brown patch fungus. As such, even places such as active sports fields and golf courses receive similar treatments to ensure their year round use for the public. However, this program must be implemented by an expert for the full effects to take place.
