Spring is just around the corner, which means it’s time to get outside and enjoy the Las Vegas, NV, sunshine. However, if you have a natural grass lawn, you may be dreading having to water, mow, and otherwise maintain your yard once again.

If you want to keep your spring cleaning limited to the indoors, synthetic grass can help you significantly reduce your lawn maintenance this season — all while adding extra fun to your backyard. Here are five of our favorite ways to maximize the benefits of artificial grass for springtime.

Protect Your Lawn from Rain

Springtime often brings with it heavy rain showers, leaving natural grass lawns saturated and muddy. Not only is this a hassle for anyone wanting to enjoy their outdoor space, but it can also cause damage to your lawn and pose health hazards for your family.

Artificial turf, on the other hand, is designed with an ultra-efficient drainage system that allows water to pass through it quickly. SGW Las Vegas artificial grass drains at a rate of more than 30 inches per hour per square yard, keeping your lawn dry and usable even during the heaviest rainstorms. This means that no matter how bad the weather, you no longer need to worry about muddy footprints being tracked into your home or outdoor playtime being canceled for days after a storm.

Avoid Pesky Weeds

Weeds are the bane of any gardener’s existence. They not only ruin the appearance of your lawn, but they also compete with the grass for nutrients, leaving your yard brown and patchy.

During springtime, weeds can quickly take over your yard if not properly managed. However, with synthetic grass, you can eliminate weeds without any hassle. Since artificial grass is made of tightly woven fibers that block out the sun’s rays, it’s virtually impossible for weeds to grow. You can also install a weed barrier for an extra layer of protection, ensuring they never have a chance to infiltrate your lawn. With synthetic turf, you can spend less time pulling weeds and more time enjoying the beauty of your lawn all spring and summer.

Manage Allergy Season

For many people, springtime is synonymous with allergy season. Increased pollen and other allergens in the air can cause symptoms like sneezing, coughing, itchy eyes, and skin rashes, making spending time outdoors uncomfortable or even unbearable. Fortunately, artificial turf can help you manage your symptoms.

Unlike natural grass, artificial grass does not produce pollen, reducing the presence of allergens in your outdoor space. Synthetic turf also doesn’t hold onto pollen particles as much as natural grass does. Thanks to its short and uniform pile height, wholesale turf traps pollen and dust particles at a much more reduced rate than natural grass, in turn reducing spring allergy symptoms.

Spend Less Time Worrying About Maintenance

Spring is the season of getting back outdoors and having more fun, but it’s also the season of breaking out your mower again. With plant life growing once again, you have to rigorously maintain natural grass all season long to ensure its health and vibrant appearance.

By contrast, artificial grass remains evergreen all year long, so you never need to water it other than a quick rinse to drain pet urine or spills. You also never need to mow or trim your synthetic turf since the polyethylene blades never grow. You can also eliminate toxic lawn chemicals and gasoline-powered lawn tools, making your backyard safer for kids, pets, and all guests. Instead of wasting your beautiful spring days on tedious lawn maintenance, you can spend more time enjoying your outdoor space with your loved ones.

Enjoy the Outdoors with a Turf Putting Green

If you’re looking for a creative way that you and your family can enjoy the spring sunshine, you can install a custom synthetic grass putting green in your backyard. Not only is this a fun addition to any outdoor space, but it also adds value to your property.
