Lawn care training takes two major forms. On the one hand, we have formal training, and on the other hand, we have informal training. We will be looking at each of these in turn, with a view to understand what each entails. But before doing all that, we need to first of all answer the more basic question -- as to who actually requires the lawn care training. And that is where we come to learn that lawn maintenance training is required by people who have it as a goal to venture into the business of maintaining lawns.
Necessity for lawn care training: Lawn care training is necessitated by the fact that lawn maintenance is a challenging undertaking, from a technical point of view. If a person is to take care of others' lawns (for payment), it becomes necessary for him or her to have some training in the field. This is especially the case keeping in mind the fact that the expectations of the people who retain professionals to do landscaping for them tend to be very high. In other words, the people who pay others to take care of their lawns tend to expect the lawns to be very well taken care of.
Watch the Blade: You want to make sure that the blade on your lawnmower is sharp. This will allow you to maintain a smooth blade as well as a healthier lawn. Ragged or pulled edges on the grass provide more spaces for microorganisms to collect and attack your lawn thus destroying all of your hard work with one single swipe.
Having thus answered the question as to why lawn care training becomes necessary, we need to proceed and examine the two forms of lawn maintenance training. Formal lawn maintenance training: This is lawn care training offered in institutions, following a standard curriculum, with examinations (and other forms of evaluation) and with certification issued at the end of the courses. To be sure, there are very few educational or vocational institutions with courses in this area. What we tend to have is a wider course in landscaping, with lawn care being one of the units covered. It is also worth noting that this is a field of learning where one can advance to a very high level. We often come across folks with up to Masters Degrees in Ornamental horticulture (which is another name for landscaping, in which lawn care is the key component).
Mowing Tips: Make sure to mow your grass as necessary and properly. This means leaving it between two and three inches in length during the summer to give it proper time to grow and recover and on the last cutting of the season you should trim it down to about 1.5 inches in order to allow it to survive the winter. Try to maintain how often you cut the lawn as well as what you do when you are cutting it. You should usually leave your clippings on the lawn as these will help to fertilize your lawn and make it more lush and green throughout the year as it feeds off of itself.
