Top tips for a tip-top lawn…
Make sure that your mower blades are nice and sharp, so as to cut the grass effectively. A dull blade will only damage the grass blades, which will give the overall lawn a brownish hue.
Grass should ideally be cut to about 2½ cm in length in the summer. It is generally better to leave the grass longer rather than shorter; cutting your lawn too short will damage it, and could encourage weeds to take root.
Longer grass will be able to withstand periods of drought better in the summer. Mowing frequently will encourage the grass to grow thicker, and encourage roots to spread, which in turn will help to prevent weeds. Shady lawns will benefit from longer grass too, and will make them less susceptible to moss and bare patches.
Cutting grass during hot periods can cause distress to your lawn. Leaving the grass longer during dry, hot conditions will help it to trap more moisture, and will mean it's less likely to fall prey to drought. If you've noticed that your lawn isn't growing much during these hot days, it's best not to cut it at all.
Like any living plant, your grass will need regular watering in order to grow properly. The best time to water your lawn will depend upon humidity and temperature; you'll know the grass needs a good drink when the blades start to show a blue-greyish tint, or the edges start to wilt and curl. A new lawn will need to be watered regularly, to ensure that the seeds germinate, or that the turf "takes".
It's best to water in the morning, as the sun will help the lawn dry throughout the day. A light drizzle of water won't do the job - you'll need to give it a proper soaking so that the moisture permeates the soil. Watering at the start of the day during cooler temperatures will yield better results.
