🌟 A drought or excessive use can leave your lawn looking dry, patchy, and bare, which not only affects its appearance but also its health and functionality.
🌟 Scarifying, which involves removing the layer of thatch and dead grass from the surface of the lawn, is a crucial step in reviving a tired or damaged lawn because it allows water, air, and nutrients to reach the roots and promotes new growth.
🌟 After scarifying, it's important to create a seedbed by loosening the topsoil and adding fresh soil if necessary, as this will provide a fertile and receptive environment for the new grass seeds to germinate and establish.
🌟 Covering the seed with soil, either by raking it in or spreading a thin layer of soil over it, helps to protect the seed from birds, wind, and sun, and also ensures that it stays moist and in contact with the soil.
🌟 Levelling out the soil after seeding is crucial to ensure an even and smooth surface, as well as to prevent any water runoff or erosion that could damage the new grass.
🌟 Using a pre-seeder fertiliser, which is a specially formulated type of fertiliser that is applied before seeding, can help to boost the soil's fertility and provide the essential nutrients that the new grass needs to grow strong and healthy.
By following these steps, you can bring your lawn back to life and enjoy a lush and vibrant green space that adds beauty and value to your home.
