How to get a great lawn

You know the expression; the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence? Well sometimes it is! Want to know why? They probably know exactly what needs to be done in order to get a great lawn; and they spend a lot of time doing it. They might also have a lawn care plan.

You can keep you lawn looking good by doing the following:

In March or April (when the snow melts)

• Broom little rocks from the grass.

May

• Rake
• Aerate
• Proceed to topdressing with compost or topsoil.
• Reseed areas that need reseeding.
• When the grass is green, cut it and fertilize. Do not cut it to short.

June-July-August

• Water if needed.
• Cut (if the weather is hot and dry, bring the cutting blade up to 8 cm.

September

• Reduce the frequency of grass cutting and watering.
• Seed where grass is dry.
• Fertilize with a fertilizer high on phosphorus and potassium.

October

• Reduce the frequency of grass cutting and watering.
• Remove Leaves that have fallen down.

November

• Remove leaves that have fallen down.

Having a great looking lawn takes time and effort, unless you have a lawn care plan. Having a professional taking care of you lawn is a great idea.
