Whataboutyou! And welcome to another Premier Lawns video, How To Renovate your Lawn after Winter.
Anyone that follows my videos will have heard me say before, aeration is
the single best thing that you can do for your lawn. This is a core here that's
come out of this lawn and you can see the roots are right down to the bottom.
That's cuz we aerate this lawn on a regular basis. Aerating a lawn is really
good as it helps grow those roots deeper and lets air down into the soil,
and it also helps the water pass through "thatch". I'm going to be talking about that
in a little more detail shortly.
After winter, early spring lawn treatment is all about controlling moss and helping
your grass recover from winter. If you're dreaming of having a lush green lawn this
summer, then you really ought be planning your spring lawn care as early as possible.
February 2020 was the wettest on record and the moss is just thriving in all
the lawns at the minute as a result. Moss isn't like grass, it doesn't look
nice in the long term and it stops the lawn looking great. Another important
reason to scarify is to remove thatch, now that's something
I mentioned a minute ago. Thatch is an organic layer that sits just below the surface
of the lawn. Now, if you were to take a spade and dig out a section of your
lawn and look at it you'll see three distinct layers. On the bottom there's
gonna be the soil and then on top there's gonna be the grass, but between the two
is a brown layer that us lawn people that's what we call thatch.
Thatch creates the perfect place for the moss to grow, and this is why we scarify
the lawn, to get rid of it, to remove as much as we can
