Good day! Can you secure your lawn for the entire season in one weekend? Yes!
First: Walk
Take a walk across your lawn. Check for bare spots (then you'll need to plan to buy grass seeds). Make sure to check for yellow patches; areas where the grass easily comes off the ground may have grubs. If you're unsure if there are grubs, ask our expert, he will help you!
Check if there is moss on your lawn - if it doesn't bother you, that's great; if it does, plan to buy lawn fertilizer with moss killer.
🐦A good tip from us: Don't just plan to buy fertilizer, seeds, aerators, etc., but also birdhouses. Birds are the best friends of lawns and gardens. Grubs stand no chance when birds live in your garden. To attract them, you need a birdhouse and a winter feeding area.
Second: Shopping! This step should follow the walk so you don't have to go shopping multiple times in one day :)
Third: If you have a young lawn, mow it. Don't mow the lawn if it's older than 2 years - you should plan for scarification first. Scarification cuts the upper layer of grass and removes the "thatch" accumulated during winter, i.e., dead grass fragments. Removing this "thatch" and cutting the lawn allows the lawn to "breathe" again and absorb the nutrients we'll give it during the season. A scarifier like this one is great for medium and large lawns. If you have a small lawn, opt for a manual scarifier.
Fourth: Overseeding! Our preferred lawn models are self-compacting or self-nourishing lawns with micro-tines.
Fifth: Fertilizer. This step applies to both young and older lawns. As mentioned, if there's moss on your lawn, go for a lawn fertilizer with moss killer. If not, opt for a multi-nutrient lawn fertilizer.
Sixth: Watering.
Seventh: On the second day of the weekend, when the lawn is dry, you can finally have a picnic!
