Lawn Care Tips for Australian Climate: What You Need to Know

Stories, Uncategorized

At StrathAyr, we understand the challenges Australian summers bring to your lawn. With our expertise in turf production and natural turf technology, we’re here to guide you through maintaining a green lawn during the hot months. Here are some essential summer lawn care tips to keep your grass thriving.

Mowing: The Right Way

Proper mowing is crucial for lawn health, especially in summer. Keep these points in mind:

  • Mow regularly, but adjust the height to leave the grass slightly longer. This provides shade to the soil, reducing moisture loss.
  • Use sharp mower blades to prevent damage to the grass.

Fertilisation: Timing is Key

Fertilise your lawn at the start of summer. Choose a slow-release fertiliser to nourish your lawn over time without the risk of burning. This ensures your rollout turf remains resilient.

Watering: Smart and Efficient

Watering is vital for lawn survival in summer. Here’s how to do it right:

  • Water early in the morning to reduce evaporation.
  • Deep, infrequent watering encourages deeper root growth, which is essential for drought tolerance.

Wetting Agents: Maximising Water Use

Wetting agents can be a game-changer for your lawn in summer. They help the soil absorb and retain water more effectively, ensuring your instant lawn or rollout turf stays hydrated.

Aerating and Patching: Essential for Growth

Aerating your lawn helps improve water penetration, especially in compacted areas. Patch any bare spots with seeds or turf to maintain a uniform look.
