If you go to
Current Issue / Archives – On Top of the World News Ocala you will find a monthly newspaper. Most months it has a column on what you should be doing to your lawn. The chemicals used are different than up north but you can do it all your self or hire someone. Make sure you know the type of grass you will have before you start your research.
You will also have a sprinkler system. Very important to be sure you have it set up correctly so you do not over water and deflate your wallet. Not uncommon to end up watering twice on the same day.
Phillip Hisey writes the articles. See page one of the Oct paper for into on him. See page 4 Keeping it Green for an example.
