LAWN CARE for JULY
Disease Alert- Red Thread
This year we have noticed an increase in the disease known as
Red Thread. This is first noticeable as irregular bleached patch-
es on the lawn. If you do notice areas of red thread please call
us and we will advise accordingly.
Mowing
Continue mowing, and increase the frequency. Try cutting one
way then cut at 90 degrees to it to give that criss-crossed fair-
way look. The grass will look and grow better if cut little and
often, rather than one big cut. This month cut no lower than 1
inch (2.5 cm).
Top Tip
– Removing Grass Stems/Stalks: You may need to rake
stems upright that creep through the lawn so they stand up
and the mower can cut them.
Patio/Driveway Weed Control
Weeds can look unsightly at this time of year in patios and
driveways. We can spray a total weed killer to kill them and
keep weed free for up to 6 months.
Actions required in July
•
Red Thread Disease Control may be needed
•
Mow lawn lightly; don’t cut shorter than 1 inch (2.5 cm)
in July. Grass will respond better if cut little and often
•
Treat weeds on driveways, paths and patios
