ESSENTIAL SPRING LAWN CARE TIPS FOR TASMANIA:
To ensure your lawn thrives this spring, follow these crucial steps:
- Fertilise TWICE in Spring: This is non-negotiable for a healthy WA lawn! Fertilising in early and late spring provides the necessary nutrients for strong growth, vibrant color, and improved resilience. Consider an Earthway Spreader for easy and even application.
- Deal with Weeds & Pests Proactively:
- Pests: Apply Acelepryn now to prevent destructive pests from taking hold. This is especially important as pest activity increases with the warmer weather.
- Weeds: Tackle weeds that emerged over winter. For Buffalo lawns, use Bow and Arrow, a highly effective herbicide. For cool season lawns, Ravage is an excellent choice. Choose a herbicide from our range.
- Consider Lawn Alternatives:
- Mowing Height:
- Gradually lower your mowing height as spring progresses, but avoid scalping. Taller grass can shade out weeds and help retain moisture.
