Good Bye Brown, Yellow Lawns, Hello Lush Vibrant Green Lawns with Lawn Treatments in Noctorum and Willaston

Flick through the pages of any gardening magazine, and you see endless pictures of stunning emerald, green, lawns.   A healthy lush lawn can make any garden, big or small look attractive. However, do you find yourself comparing what you have, to what you see in the magazines, and the two not quite matching up?  Do you see the little brown or bare patches on your lawn that are nowhere to be seen on the lawns in the photographs.  It can be disheartening to see what you could have, to the reality of what you actually have. But don’t worry there is a solution and LawnQuest can help.

The starting point to ensure your lawn is in good health is to assess its current health and identify any areas where it might be lacking nutrients.  In some cases, it might have had either too much water or heat or not enough water or specific minerals or chemicals. As much as we love our pets, their pee can have a detrimental effect on the grass.  It can change the pH balance of the soil, so this is often something that needs to be addressed!

The lawn treatments in Noctorum and Willaston that we provide will take care of these problems. For example, we recommend regular aeration of your lawn (hollow-coring or spiking). This helps to break down compacted soil, which then enables water, oxygen and nutrients to reach the grass roots. This will help the grass grow the vibrant green you see in the gardening magazines.  We have the equipment to carry out this kind of treatment.

Throughout the seasons we will also visit your home or business premises and apply a variety of lawn treatments in Noctorum and Willaston, specific to the needs of the soil at that time of the year, whether it’s winter, spring or summer.  The lawn treatments are designed to provide all the nutrients to maintain good health, and if it is not in good health, to get it back on the road to recovery. The lawn treatments in Noctorum and Willaston are tailored not just to the time of the year, but also any specific problems that your lawn might be experiencing. They will help with strong root and shoot growth and encourage chlorophyll production.

Look After Your Lawn with a Lawn Feed

During the spring and summer months, your lawn is actively growing, in fact it is amazing how quickly grass can grow.  The problem is that as fast as the grass is growing, so are the weeds, moss, and pests will thrive amongst them, so it is vital that the grass is given everything that it needs at this time of the year, to grow strong and withstand threats to its health.

LawnQuest will provide your lawn with lawn feed suited to its needs. During our first visit we will evaluate the condition of the grass and suggest a series of lawn feed treatments that will either maintain its health, if it is already in good condition, or improve its condition. We tailor our treatments to your lawn because we understand that each one is different.  We also have the flexibility to adapt the treatments we apply as the condition of the grass improves.

We can advise you on which is the most appropriate lawn feed to use as well as the correct amount to give your lawn.  Factors such as the type of grass you have, soil, and seasonal conditions, as well as the position of the lawn, for example, the amount of shade it receives, can all impact on the health of the grass and influence the kind of lawn feed we use.

Take Charge of Your Lawn and Reclaim It with Moss Treatments in Noctorum and Willaston

Like the common cold, moss can be very irritating.  It can have a negative impact on grass health and will return if not properly treated.  To get rid of moss once and for all, it will often take several attempts and several different approaches.  That’s when getting a lawn care professional to tackle the problem can be the best answer.  It will save you time and money and guarantee that the moss is properly treated.  LawnQuest provide a comprehensive range of moss treatments in Noctorum and Willaston.

To use the right moss treatments in Noctorum and Willaston, there are three key factors that must be understood –

1. How lawn moss grows
2. How to control its growth
3. How to prevent it growing back.

Understanding how moss grows is the first step. It loves shaded areas with acid soil which is the opposite of the kind of conditions that grass prefers, so simply change the conditions by increasing the amount of light the moss gets and change the pH in the soil and you will hinder the growth of moss but conversely you will encourage grass to grow.

Controlling the growth of moss involves applying moss treatments in Noctorum and Willaston at the right time of year.  April and September are generally the best times to carry out any moss treatments such as scarifying moss.  Similarly, using a moss killer that has ferrous sulphate in it is ideal as it draws out the moisture and dries the moss up, turning it black.   It can then be raked up and removed.

If the soil in your garden is more acidic than alkaline, adding lime will readdress the balance and help to prevent moss from growing back.  Simple steps such as improving drainage by thinning out trees and shrubs as well as aerating the areas of the lawn that are compacted will also create better conditions for grass to thrive and moss to struggle.
