In these uncertain times, many of us will be spending time in the garden. I have written a few tips that will help you to keep on top of your lawn.

 April.
Mowing between the showers.
  • Switch or brush to remove dew and prevent disease.
  • Mow regularly, keeping the height of the cut at 6mm if possible. Use a grass comb on the mower.
  • Continue to aerate using needle tines or with a Sarel spiker.
  • Check soil temperatures(above 10ºC) Once the soil has warmed up sufficiently you can carry out small area renovation.
  • April and May is a good time to sow grass seed. Prepare the area by spiking, then apply a mixture of Seed and Turf Top Dressing, finally rubbing over with a Lute to maintain levels.
  • Apply a liquid feed between granular fertiliser applications. Feeds containing Seaweed are useful.
  • Check for disease and apply a fungicide if necessary.
  • Consider biological methods of controlling disease.
At Paul Smith Landscape and Gardening Services we can take care of this for you.
