Seasonal Calendar for Lawn Care

 

Spring

Higher cut grass in March - so long as its' mild enough
Time to lay in new turf or sow a new lawn
By April apply a combined a Lawn Weed and Feed (and Mosskiller - if needed)
Cut once a week as the grass starts really growing


 

Summer

Mow twice weekly for a fine lawn
If its getting hot and dry, then cut back to mowing once a week, or even less
If turfing, make sure the roots are well moistened


 

Autumn

New lawns can be sown in September
Scarifying and aerating (spiking) can be done in October
Autumn lawn feed (don't use spring feed if you have it left over, as its nutrient base is wrong for this time of year)
Lay in turf


 

Winter

If you're located in a frost prone area, keep off the grass when its frosted
Mowing can still take place in warmer regions
