Spring

Don’t get caught out with early growth, keep an eye out for when you need to mow and make sure the blades on your mower are sharp, also give your turf some spring fertiliser. If you have bare areas you can over-seed or patch up. You might neeed to scarify to get rid of moss and thatch. If your lawn has yellow or bare patches you can apply a fertiliser to aid growth.

Seasonal Turf Care

Summer

Established lawns do not require watering, remember brown lawns are cool. Summer fertilising can be important, if your grass needs it and try to keep on top of your mowing, go green and compost your clippings.
