Summer can be brutal on lawns 🌞
Heat, heavy use and dry patches can leave your grass looking tired and sad. The good news? With a bit of TLC, it can bounce back beautifully.
Here are our top tips to bring your lawn back to life 👇
1️⃣ Deal with weeds first
There’s no point feeding weeds along with your grass. Get rid of them first so all the nutrients go where they’re needed.
2️⃣ De-thatch if needed
A build-up of dead grass (thatch) can block water and air from reaching the roots. A good rake through the lawn helps clear it out and lets the soil breathe again.
3️⃣ Aerate the soil
Lawns compact over time. Aerating helps water, air and nutrients get down to the roots where they matter most. A garden fork or aerator works wonders.
4️⃣ Top dress for a boost
After mowing (not too short!), spread a light layer of top dressing to improve soil health and encourage strong, even growth.
5️⃣ Feed it right
A quality fertiliser, liquid or granular, can make a huge difference to colour, thickness and overall health.
