Coming into winter our lawns start to look bit tired, some planning for the year ahead can ensure your lawn bounces back looking green and healthy. You can start by using an autumn fertiliser, this can be used between September and November – an ideal fertiliser will be low in nitrogen and high in potassium and iron, another winter fertiliser can also be applied between December and February to achieve a high result.
On a relatively dry winters day you can give the lawn a high cut, this is purely to help keep the uneven growth down and as a general tidy up – the lower cuts can be saved for spring and summer! You can also aerate the lawn to keep air available to the roots – DO NOT use anything too big for the spikes as if water gets in and there is a frost then you have a good chance the lawn will start to show signs of heaving.
