If your struggling with a tired looking lawn after winter with the grass looking brown, patchy, ruled by moss or just straight up awful – let me explain 4 simple lawn tips that will supercharge your lawn this spring!
When to cut your lawn after winter?
Most people in the UK do their first cut of the year mid march as the grass starts growing again
If the ground isn’t too wet and the grass is growing, starting to cut your lawn is great to take off the brown tips from winter and begin this years lawncare plan.
After cutting, look to rake up any dead leaves or grass from the winter.
This will help improve air circulation and allow new growth to thrive.
For larger debris like sticks and branches make sure to remove them before cutting as these will blunt your mower blade
Controlling Moss
Moss can be a problem in any lawn, but it is especially prevalent in shaded areas.
Moss thrives in cool, moist environments and can quickly take over your lawn if left unchecked.
The best way to control moss is scarify or rake the plant first and then overseed any patchy areas with fresh grass seed

When to Overseed your lawn?
Overseeding is a great way to thicken up your lawn and fill in any bare or thin spots.
It’s also a good idea to overseed if you have an area that gets a lot of foot traffic, as this will help prevent wear and tear and the weeds creeping in from spring
To overseed, simply cut and rake the lawn as before, scatter the seed over the desired area, walk or tread it down to get great seed to soil contact and if possible cover with a weed free topsoil or compost
Water regularly to keep the area moist until the seedlings have germinated and grown strong enough to compete with the existing grass.
