Essential Lawn Care Tips

Achieving a beautiful, healthy lawn involves more than just planting seeds. Follow these essential tips to prepare and maintain your lawn using our high-quality products:

Preparation:

1. Soil Testing: Start by testing your soil to understand its pH and nutrient levels. This will help you choose the right fertiliser and amendments. A soil pH kit is needed.
2. Soil Preparation: Clear the area of debris and weeds. Loosen the soil with a garden fork or tiller, and mix in any recommended soil amendments.
3. Seed Planting: Evenly spread the grass seed using a broadcast spreader. Lightly rake the soil to ensure good seed-to-soil contact, and water gently.

Maintenance:

1. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist until the grass seeds germinate. Once established, adjust watering to the needs of the grass variety and weather conditions.
2. Fertilising: Use our fertilisers to provide essential nutrients. Follow the recommended application rates and schedules to promote healthy growth.
3. Mowing: Start mowing when the grass reaches about 7-10 cm. Avoid cutting more than one-third of the grass height at a time to prevent stress on the lawn.

Seasonal Care: Adjust your lawn care routine based on the season. In summer, focus on watering and dealing with pests, while in winter, reduce mowing and consider overseeding for thicker growth in spring.

By following these tips and using our products, you’ll be well on your way to a thriving, good looking lawn.
