How to care for new lawns
Posted on 24 April, 2023
Maintaining a well-kept garden and lawn is a key aspect of any homeowner's responsibility. Not only does it enhance the aesthetic appeal of your home, but it also contributes to the overall mental health and wellbeing of you and your family.
In the UK, we are lucky to have a temperate climate that is conducive to the growth of a diverse range of plants, flowers, and grasses. However, to keep your garden and lawn looking their best, it is important to follow some essential care tips.
In this article, we will provide you with some useful tips on how to care for your garden and lawn and introduce you to some new products that can make the process even easier.
Mowing and Watering
Regular mowing and watering are two fundamental aspects of lawn care. To maintain a healthy lawn, it is important to mow it regularly, especially during the growing season.
The ideal height for your lawn should be around 2.5-4 cm, depending on the type of grass you have. Additionally, watering your lawn regularly is essential for its health, particularly during dry weather spells.
However, overwatering can also cause problems, such as fungal growth and root rot. As such, it is important to strike a balance and water your lawn when needed. If you purchase grass seeds or plant seeds, they will contain guides for when’s best to water and mow/trim them.
Fertilising and Soil Care
To keep your garden and lawn looking lush and green, it is essential to provide them with the nutrients they need. Fertilizers are an effective way of ensuring that your plants and grass have the nutrients they require.
At BC Profiles, we sell high-quality fertilizer from reputable companies such as Miracle-Gro. Miracle-Gro’s lawn care range can grow your grass, as well as kill weeds.
Additionally, it is important to ensure that your soil is in good condition. This can be achieved through regular aeration, which helps to improve soil drainage and reduce soil compaction.
Weeding and Pest Control
Weeds and pests can cause significant damage to your garden and lawn if not dealt with promptly. To prevent weed growth, it is important to regularly remove any weeds that appear. We sell Roundup and Weedol weed killers, which are industry recognised.
Pests such as aphids, slugs, and snails can cause damage to your plants and grass. To control pests, there are a range of effective products available on the market, such as insecticides and herbicides. There are also plant sprays available to ward off pests.
