 GET THAT LAWN PREPARED
As we all know parts of the UK have been hit by the hose pipe ban; with such an unpredictable summer ahead we hope these tips to keep your lawn in tip-top condition will be of help:
Aerate your lawn to provide an open and oxygenated soil; this will encourage deep rooting (ensuring grass roots obtain the optimum amount of water).
Reduce the thatch layer; thatch will prevent water from penetrating into the soil.
Raise the height of the cut on your lawn mower; if the leaf is bigger there is more chance of photosynthesis . Cut regularly.
Ensure your lawn is weed free, as weeds will compete with grass for nutrients and water - we suggest either hand removing or using Vitax Lawn Clear.
To maintain a healthy lawn the grass will need feeding. We suggest Nutragreen micro - which is a slow release fertiliser - it will not scorch the grass which means it can be used at any time and under any conditions. Nutients are released over a 4 - 6 months period which allows the grass to have an even growth, it also has the added benefit of a high potash content which will further help with grass root development.
We strongly believe that by taking the time now, you are giving your lawn every possible opportunity to stave off any problems that the drought may bring.
As always should you have any questions please call us.
