We Know Grass

The Berkshires offer stunning beauty, but the flip side is a climate that keeps your lawn on its toes. Cool-season grasses endure Pittsfield’s tough winters and hot, muggy summers. We recommend:

• Kentucky bluegrass: This dense grass is known for its rich color and durability. However, it requires regular fertilization and mowing between 2.5 and 3.5 inches.
• Fine fescue: It’s low-maintenance and great for shaded areas, but doesn’t handle heavy traffic well. Mow between 2.5 and 4 inches, depending on the cultivar.
• Perennial ryegrass: This fast-growing grass recovers well from wear but is prone to fungal diseases. Keep mowing height between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
• Tall fescue: It’s durable and heat-resistant, but you’ll need to mow it frequently.  Once it gets to 3 inches, mow it back down to 2 inches.

A good mowing schedule: With Pittsfield's spring showers and summer humidity, your turf can grow like crazy. To prevent common Massachusetts lawn diseases and maintain a healthy appearance, our pros will mow every 1-2 weeks in spring and autumn.
