☀️ HOT WEATHER LAWN CARE TIPS ☀️
The sun’s blazing, and while that’s great for BBQs and garden lounging, it can really take a toll on your lawn. 🌱🔥
Here’s how to help your grass stay strong and green in the heat:
✅ Water Wisely – 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 – this encourages roots to grow deeper and become more drought-tolerant.
💧 Consider a Wetting Agent – If your lawn’s 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. It’s a great add-on during prolonged dry spells. For more information call 07398 181160
✅ Raise your Mower Blades – In hot, dry weather, mow less often and keep your grass a bit longer – around 5–7cm (2–3 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? We’re here to help – get in touch and we’ll take the hassle out of lawn care! Just call 07398 181160 🌿💦
