June - Lawn Care

With mowing season in full swing now - vary the direction of your cuts each time you mow so stop grass blade growing in the same direction and reducing the effectiveness of you cut. Now is a good time to add a liquid fertiliser feed which will buck the lawn up if looking a bit tired. Don't forget the edging it'll make all the difference to the finished look. Finally, take care dumping grass clippings on the compost - add some woody material or torn up cardboard/paper to make sure there's enough air in the mix or it risks ending up a slimy mess.
