Your wooden benches<\/a> look lovely in the fallen leaves and the frosted grass.\u00a0 You may think all you can do in the winter months is tidy up a little and enjoy a quick hot chocolate sat on your bench.\u00a0 However, the end of summer does not mean the end of your lawn care.\u00a0 You will need to get ahead of the game if you want your lawn to be healthy in the following spring.<\/p>\n

The time to start preparing your lawn is autumn, with its cooler temperatures and high rainfall.\u00a0 Even though the grass grows slower in the winter months, it doesn’t mean you should stop caring for it.\u00a0 In fact, from autumn and through the winter, you should be putting more care into your grass.\u00a0 These colder months are the time that the lawn is absorbing energy, essential nutrients and moisture.\u00a0 Therefore, if you pay attention to it, you will be rewarded with the loveliest spring-time garden.<\/p>\n

Keep mowing through winter<\/h2>\n

Although the weather might limit your opportunities, you should still mow your lawn.\u00a0 Drop the mower to the lowest setting and allow more light to get to the base of the grass.\u00a0 This will mean less of your lawn will turn brown during the winter.\u00a0 You should not trim off more than one-third of the grass at a time. Therefore, you may want to lower the cutting height gradually.<\/p>\n

Add air to the soil<\/h2>\n

This is the time when you should aerate your soil.\u00a0 The aim is to get oxygen, water and fertiliser deep into the grassroots.\u00a0 You can get an electronic lawn aerator, which is self-propelled and punches holes into the soil.\u00a0 This is useful if you have a large garden.\u00a0 Otherwise, you might want to use a fork to dig down into the ground.<\/p>\n

Rake the leaves and the debris<\/h2>\n

Through autumn and winter, you need to keep ahead of the debris.\u00a0 Raking is a dull and futile task, or so it seems, however rotting leaves on your lawn can breed fungal diseases.\u00a0 If you are feeling particularly lazy, you can lawnmower the leaves up \u2013 as the suction device to pick up cut grass will pick up the leaves instead.\u00a0 You do not want the detritus of autumn and winter, creating a soggy and suffocated mess of your lawn.<\/p>\n

Fertilise now for future growth<\/h2>\n

It might seem pointless. Fertilising during the autumn and winter will have no noticeable impact at the time, or in the weeks following.\u00a0 However, if you feed your lawn, you should do it in late autumn \u2013 when the grass is growing at its slowest, the temperatures are crisp and the moisture high.\u00a0 This mix will allow nutrients to get to the soil and help the growth of the grass.\u00a0 You should choose late autumn, early winter to apply dry lawn fertiliser to your grass for the most impact.<\/p>\n

You must be careful not to miss a spot.\u00a0 You could use a spreader for the best coverage \u2013 or a walk-behind spreader.\u00a0 Most fertiliser cartons come with built-in spreaders now to help with the even spreading of the fertiliser across the lawn.<\/p>\n

Work on the bald spots<\/h2>\n

This time is also perfect for fixing those bare spots.\u00a0 Although you can’t seed the lawn at this time of year, you can use a lawn repair mixture<\/a>.\u00a0 This mixture is sold at garden centres and home DIY stores.\u00a0 This ready to use mix includes grass seed, quick start fertiliser and organic mulch.\u00a0 Remember to use a rake for scratching the soil loos at the bald spot.\u00a0 Spread the mixture and water thoroughly.<\/p>\n

Weed control<\/h2>\n

The final tip is to keep control of the weeds during this period.\u00a0 The late autumn and winter are times when you can fight back against the scourge of pervasive plant species.\u00a0 Like with most plants, weeds go into energy-saving during the autumn and winter.\u00a0 This means that they will drink up everything around them, including a herbicide.\u00a0 Make sure you read the packaging before applying the weed killer.\u00a0 Some of these chemicals require daytime temperatures that are consistently above 60 degrees Fahrenheit to be effective.<\/p>\n

In short<\/h2>\n

You may think that late autumn and winter are a time to leave your garden to go a little wild.\u00a0 However, if you do, you are missing an opportunity to develop a healthy lawn for the spring.\u00a0 Put in some work now and avoid labour when all you want to do is sit and enjoy some much-needed sun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
