How to Improve your Lawns Looks

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder so the nicest grass for your lawn in the UK will be an individual choice based on stripes, greenness and fineness of leaf.

So, your lawn is not as green as it could be! Here are the things that will make your grass super green!

Using a proven mix of nutrients you can rapidly enhance the green in your lawn in less than a day. Ideal for application between seasonal feeds or as a standalone fast green-up before an event.

Making your lawn thicker and fuller will prevent moss and weeds whilst improving the wow factor of your grass.

Several grass types are well-suited for hard wearing, high traffic lawns in temperate regions such as the UK. They are ideal for where children and dogs play.

Rolling the lawn is to firm the surface and to correct frost heave. It will not flatten the surface or sort a bumpy lawn

Most people irrigate grass and turf incorrectly which creates shallow roots and lots of weeds so do it right or don’t do it at all!

If your lawn dries and the grass turns brown in summer then improving lawn care and using a wetting agent can reduce the severity or stop it completely.

Wetting agents improve rain and water uptake in the lawn. It helps water to penetrate and spread, improving availability to the grass and reducing total water usage.

With the right preparation you can affect how long your lawn stays green during dry conditions. See how to retain the green in your grass in summer for longer.

Sandy or poor soils and the drier east of the country are presented with a challenge when it comes to lawn care. Choosing drought tolerant grasses will help.

An old lawn becomes very compacted and therefore doesn’t hold air or water well. This means it doesn’t respond well to fertiliser .....

An old lawn suffers from compaction so any renovation should include an intense period of aeration, hollow tining and scarification to give it its best chance.

Not all grass makes for a good lawn: some invaders that need control are couch grass, yorkshire fog, meadow grass and some rye grasses
