Forgive the two different cameras taking photos on different days with different weather, but it hopefully shows the positive results from the fineturf cocktail I've made designed specifically for cricket squares which are in need of some nutrition but the grounds team are finding it difficult to get sufficient water onto the cricket squares.

Having not seen any rain in York for some time, and none forecast, this cocktail gives a moderate amount of NPK with some trace elements with additional Magnesium and a great seaweed extract as a biostimulant.

One advantage of our sprayer is that we can target specific pitches, so the clubs we've done so far have decided to feed the whole square with the exception of any old pitches currently being used for net practice, any pitches currently in use, and any pitches that have started the preparation process.

Whilst watering is hugely beneficial, the risk of scorch from this is very low.
I'm offering this as a service to cricket clubs in the York league area at ÂŁ8.22 per pitch (Minimum charge of 10 pitches) plus ÂŁ1.85 per mile for anywhere outside the York ring road.

Our friends in Norfolk have us puzzled with this one!

We recently received this picture from a customer querying why these mystery circles had appeared on their lawn! 🤔

We quickly sprung into action to identify the issue as we’d never seen anything like it before. Fortunately it didn’t take us long to identify and solve the problem! ✅

Can anyone else guess why these circles appeared? âť“

To give you some help - they’re not related to pests, disease or fertiliser/product application! 🌱

It feels a bit odd talking about applying wetters after the weather we've been having of late. However this is one lawn treatment that really does work best if it's applied before it's needed.

What are wetters?

Lawn wetters, aka wetting agents are the greenskeepers' best kept secret. They overcome water surface tension and waxy soil coatings to allow water to pe*****te the soil and circulate around plant roots. The result? A lawn stays greener for longer during dry spells and recovers quicker after periods of drought.

Have you ever noticed how difficult it can be to rehydrate a really dry lawn? Water just seems to either run straight off or pool on the surface. That's because the soil has become hydrophobic. It's a natural phenomenon but it's somewhat annoying because it means that no matter how much water falls on the grass - it just doesn't get to the roots.

Lawn wetters overcome that problem BUT they must be applied BEFORE the soil dries out. That means spring time or early summer. If you wait to see if we get a drought, you'll likely miss your opportunity to make the most of this really effective treatment.

Thinking of applying wetters to your lawn? Your local UKLCA member can give you plenty of advice and information. Visit our website today to seach for an independent lawn care professional near you.
