The correct answer is yes, though as long as you are quite happy to investigate the actual weeds in your lawn, you might end up spending a lot of time and money investing in a product that will not work.

TheLawnHealer advise is to mow in the correct fashion, ie height and frequency, but weeds are a ever presence and we would advise that you contact us for advise on a yearly programme that is designed not to allow the weeds to get a hold on the lawn in the first instance.

The right answer here is as much as possible during the growing seasons; however our busy lifestyles prevent us from doing this.

The blades of your mower should be kept nice and sharp and the length of grass to a good healthy height, (around 5cm). If you could find the time to cut the lawns twice a week that’s great, though TheLawnHealer recommends at least once a week and never take too much off the blade of grass, the advice really is little and often.

Most mature lawns will need some form of aeration due to years of compaction from mowing and also just playing on the lawns.

This is an important process in the plan to improve the lawns health. Aeration should be done in the growing seasons punching holes or plugs into the surface. The turf will spread into these holes taking advantage of the new oxygen, water and fertilisers fallen into these new spaces. The Lawn Healer employs the latest technology and machinery and will efficiently aerate your lawn.

Well unfortunately there is no secret, just plenty of hard work and patience.

A lawn expert will be able to advise you of the right balance in terms of mowing, fertilisation, aeration and irrigation. Lawns are a living thing and like humans, lawns too need the right balance of nutrients to be healthy. The Lawn Healer will be more than happy to put together a yearly programme that will help create that perfect lawn.

There is a good rule of thumb that a lawn should receive around 4 cm of water per week. In summer we might actually get some sunshine and dry weather and therefore you’d be wise to water your lawn to make up for the lack of rainfall.

However differing soil bases will determine the level of water to be applied, the more clay base the less water needed, the more sandy base you should apply a little more. Again TheLawnHealer will be able to guide you as to what you soil base is and design a programme to suit your particular lawn.
