April is a good time to start thinking about lawn care in spring. These useful tips will guide you step by step through early-season lawn maintenance.
Lawn Care in Spring – Getting Started
Lawn care should begin in spring with a few important steps. With the first warm days, the grass starts growing again. About two weeks later, it is usually time for the first mowing. Keep the blades at least 5 cm high. Check the condition of the lawn; if you find moss, aerate or scarify the surface. This treatment requires a steady hand and should be done no more than two or three times. The right equipment can be rented at almost any garden store. After the first spring mowing, measure the pH level, which should be around 5.5 to 6; a little lawn lime can help if the value is too low.
Step by Step: Prepare the Lawn for Summer
Fertilize, fertilize, fertilize – this important step in spring lawn care should not be overlooked. If you have found a lot of moss in the thatch, use a suitable lawn fertilizer. A spreader helps distribute it evenly. Watch the weather forecast and fertilize before rain; the moisture will carry nutrients down to the roots more quickly.
