Lawn Care
Check over your mower, adjusting cylinders and cutting blades to high setting. Aerate the lawn with a fork and give it a thorough raking with a spring tine rake so that the grass and weeds are set up to meet the mower blades.The lawn should be mown as the grass begins to grow, normally only two cuts this month will be required.
Prepare ground for sowing grass seed next month, ensuring a firm even bed. A new grass seed mixture Johnson’s ‘Anytime’ is available that germinates at lower temperatures, making it possible to start new lawns for seed earlier in the season and later into the autumn. Continue scattering worm casts on dry days: note that there is a new worm deterrent now available to the amateur sold under the name of Cast Clear. Remark and cut fresh edges where necessary using half moon edging iron and a straight board edge.
Start to feed established turf with spring and summer lawn feed such as Scott’s Lawn Builder.Treat moss in lawns using Scott’s Lawn Builder with Moss Control and when the moss turns black and dies rake it out to give the grass a chance to recover.
