LAWN CARE CALENDAR

August

Keep mowing regularly and watering as necessary. Fill any cracks caused by drought with a mixture of sharp sand and soil. In dry weath- er conditions leave the grass longer to help retain ground moisture.

September

Raise the height of cut to allow the grass to thicken and protect the roots from the winter frost and snow.

October

Rake out the thatch from the turf and spike the lawn to assist in drainage. Brush in peat and sharp sand.

November

Use a stiff broom to disperse worm casts before mowing. Keep turf free from leaves.

December

Apart from brushing away leaves, December is a slack end of a busy year. Keep off the lawn if it is very wet or frozen.

Lawn Stripes

The way to achieve a neat striped effect is for the lawn being cut in parallel stripes, alternate stripes being mown in opposite directions. A much more important routine is to cut at right angles to the line of the previous mowing. If the work has been carried in a north-south line, then the next cutting should be in an east-west direction. The cross- cutting keeps down the coarse weed grasses.
