LAWN CARE IN AUTUMN
The Autumn Renovation Programme begins this month; thatch
and compaction are two of any lawns major problems and now
is the best time to tackle them, especially after this spring and
summer’s dry conditions.
Scarification and Over Seeding
Remove the thatch, the dead and the weak grass, and open up
the surface to allow the lawn to breathe and over seed with a
quality grass seed.
Autumn Aeration
Soil compaction is a frequent cause of turf deterioration and
moss invasion; this is a process whereby 10 – 15cm (4 - 6 ”)
holes are “mechanically punched” in to the lawn allowing air in
to the roots of the grass, encouraging a more vigorous and
greener lawn.
Autumn Feed
This feed is another important part of any Lawn Care Pro-
gramme. Fertiliser high in Phosphate and Potassium with addi-
tional Iron should be used for that dark green look and moss
prevention.
