want to do is give it more ni-
trogen,” Fong advises. Fertil- ize less, he suggests, and use a fertilizer with more potassi- um, which strengthens grass and builds its stress tolerance.
WATER LESS
In the fall and winter, you only need to water about once every three days or so.
“That sort of schedule promotes more robust root growth in your grass, and
makes it more water-effi- cient,” Fong says.
For a simple way to check and see if your lawn needs watering, just take a quick step onto the grass. If it springs back up when you step, it’s fine. If it stays flat, time to water!
MOW HIGHER
It’s fine to continue mow- ing all winter long, according to Fong, but do make adjust- ments as conditions call for them.
“Continue raising the height of the cut if your lawn is shaded from sunlight,” he says.
MONITOR AND TREAT DISEASE IMMEDIATELY
If your lawn historically has issues with disease — if you’ve seen brown patches in the grass — you’ll want to moni- tor and employ fungicide applications. There are sev- eral common fungus types in Hawaii: brown patch, dollar spot, rust disease, leaf spot and fairy ring.
“It may be worth applying a broad-spectrum preventive fungicide in anticipation of the problem,” advises Fong.
STOP WEED INFESTATION BEFORE IT STARTS
Consider applying a pre- emergent herbicide before
you notice weed infestation, or at the very first sign.
“Try to apply the pre-emer- gent before weeds germinate from seed,” Fong says. “That will stop the seeds from grow- ing when it gets a little cooler; when they grow, it’s harder to eradicate them.”
