โ๏ธ HOT WEATHER LAWN CARE TIPS โ๏ธ
The sunโs blazing! Thatโs great for sunbathing and BBQs, but it can really take a toll on your lawn. ๐ฑ๐ฅ
Hereโs some top tips to help your grass stay green and healthy in the heat:
โ
Water Wisely โ Timing is everything! Water early in the morning to avoid evaporation during the hottest part of the day. Give your lawn a deep soak a couple of times a week rather than a light sprinkle every day โ this encourages roots to grow deeper and become more drought-tolerant.
๐ง Consider a Wetting Agent โ If your lawnโs struggling to absorb water, it might be suffering from dry patch. A wetting agent helps water soak evenly into the soil, improving hydration and reducing runoff. Itโs a great add-on during prolonged dry spells. For more information call 0208 088 5185.
โ
Raise your Mower Blades โ In hot, dry weather, mow less often and keep your grass a bit longer โ around 5โ7cm (2โ3 inches). Taller grass shades the soil, helping it stay cooler and retain moisture. Plus, it reduces stress on the grass when conditions are hot.
A bit of smart care now keeps your lawn looking lush all summer. Not sure where to start? Weโre here to help โ get in touch and weโll take the hassle out of lawn care! Just call 0208 088 5185 ๐ฟ๐ฆ
