Lompoc, CA lawn care service at the click of a button

Have you ever been to the Lompoc Flower Fields and wondered why you can’t grow anything so beautiful in your yard, including grass? It’s because Lompoc has a tricky climate. The mild year-round temperatures favor grass and ornamentals, but the dry conditions don’t.

If a great lawn is a priority, you need the kind of expertise that LawnStarter offers. Our pros understand the science behind growing and maintaining grass, and they have the knowledge and tools to deliver great results.

Oh, and if you have questions about California’s Green Lawn Care Law, we’ve got you covered. As our Green Lawn Care Law FAQ notes, if you’re mowing with gas-powered mowers, blowers, edgers, you’ll need to replace them with battery-powered ones eventually.

Let LawnStarter’s local lawn care pros care for your yard, and don’t worry if you have the right equipment. Our pros are your neighbors. We know how to keep Golden State lawns green and lush.

Here are some of the things we know, and that you should know, too:

Best Grass Types for Lompoc

Lompoc is in California’s “transition zone.” Its mild winters and dry summers make it an ideal location for both cool-season and warm-season grasses. Our experts recommend:

• Tall Fescue: This grass stands up well to cooler temperatures but does fine in the summer as well.
• Kentucky Bluegrass: Known for its striking greenish-blue hue and cold tolerance, this cool-season grass does well in warm conditions.
• Perennial Ryegrass: A star performer in northern climates, this fine-textured cool-season grass grows well in warm weather, but it’s not fond of extreme heat. 
• Bermudagrass: Typically found in warm climates, this warm-season variety thrives in sunny conditions and does well in busy yards.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Mow weekly, ideally when your grass is about one-third taller than its optimal height.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Lompoc

Water, mowing, and fertilizer aren’t enough to keep a lawn healthy. Pests and diseases can ravage grass if left unchecked, so watch out for:

• Grubs: These larvae feed on grass roots, causing yellow patches.
• Brown Patch: A fungal disease, it creates circular brown spots.
• Sod Webworms: These caterpillars chew grass blades, leading to thinning.
