Look after your lawn during the summer
To keep your grass looking its best during the summer months you need to make sure its watered enough, like any plant your grass can become stress and wither when it gets hot if it’s not watered enough and you will start to get brown dry patches. As long as you have been looking after your grass during the early parts of the year with feeding, regular cutting and aeration you grass should be fine once the weather heats up.
When it does get very hot you will find that it won’t need to be cut as often because growth slows, over cutting during the hot summer months can cause damage and balding so don’t cut it too short. You will also need to keep on top of the weeds as well as these can shoot up during the summer, using a selective herbicide or digging them out of the root should effectively eliminate them, leaving your grass ready for the whole family to enjoy.
