Seasonal Lawn Care Tips

<p>Your lawn, just like many of your garden plants, behaves and grows differently across each of the four seasons.<br><br><img width="317" src="https://assets.centralindex.com/W/48/c9d68a132dc30c683ddd73e75ec4677f.jpg"><br>Understanding a little about its habits and knowing the simple tricks that will help it flourish can assist you in having a lawn that looks its best year round.<br><br>Of course, there are variations in climate and soils depending on where you live, and these need to be considered but here’s our easy guide to seasonal lawn care.<br><br></p>
<h2>Spring lawn care</h2>
<br>Most of the lawn grasses we grow in Australia are warm season varieties that don't do well over winter. Chances are your lawn’s looking a bit worse for wear leading into spring. Browning is typical, as is thinning. This will have the flow-on effect of making any bare patches look worse than they actually are. On the positive side, your lawn is about to bust back into lush, green life.

<h2>Lawn tasks:</h2>
<br>• Rake vigorously to not only clear fallen leaves and twigs but more importantly; to strip out dead and brown grass ("thatch") to allow more light through to new shoots.
<br>
<br>• Fertilise: This is the critical time of year to give your lawn a balanced, slow release feed. Fertilising now provides the nutrients to reinvigorate the lawn so it can power into summer. If you only fertilise once a year, do it in Spring!
<br>
<br>• Watch watering: This can be a tricky time of year for watering. The soil hasn’t warmed and nights may still be cool, so a deep watering may last for longer than expected. Burrow your finger down into the lawn. If it’s damp, don't water.
<br>
<br>• Mowing: Now’s the time to get your mower serviced and the blades sharpened or changed. If you’ve been mowing with a catcher over winter, switch to mulch mowing now. See more tips on mowing in our Complete Guide to Lawn Care.
<br>
<br>• Weed watch: Weeds are coming to life too! Fertilising the lawn to thicken it up will help keep weeds at bay. Very sparse areas are the most likely to become infested with weeds. If they are already obvious, use Scotts Lawn Builder + WeedKill (instead of All Purpose). Just ensure lawn mowing and gardening services is suitable because weed and feed products are often unsuitable for Buffalo and other wide blade grasses.

<h2>How to choose the best lawn mowing or lawn care service</h2>
<br>To keep your lawn looking its best, it is important to maintain it regularly throughout the year. If you are short on time but still wish to enjoy your lawn, there are lawn mowing services available that will keep your lawn looking well groomed and maintained. Basic services, like mowing and edging the lawn, will be offered by all companies such as Brisbane Landscapers (ww.brisbanelandscaper.com) and most will provide many others, such as weed control, fertilising, rubbish removal (lawn clippings, etc), slashing, landscaping, pruning and trimming and gutter cleaning.
<br>
<br>
<h2>Make Sure the Price is Right</h2>
<br>Fitting the service to your budget is clearly important, so go ahead and ask them about their rates and what level of service is included in their quotes.
