PREPARE YOUR LAWN FOR WINTER
Rejuvenating your lawn after a long, hot, dry summer, and preventing the onset of Wintergrass is important to keep your lawn in the best possible condition. To help you achieve this, we offer the following services.
- pre-emergent Wintergrass control applied with a wetting agent
- the option to add trace elements and bio-stimulants incorporated in our premium slow-release fertiliser
- grooming/vertimowing including wetting agent
Wintergrass attacks most lawns every season, then dies out in late Spring/early Summer leaving sparse patches where it has invaded the lawn. A once-per-year pre-emergent herbicide to eliminate your Wintergrass is available. It requires little watering in and has consistently long residual control. The key is, your lawn MUST be sprayed BEFORE you notice Wintergrass germinating. Ideally, this will be March and April, so you need to book this service now if you have previously had Wintergrass infestations.
Industry best practice in WA is to apply wetting agents during Summer and Autumn, to correct water repellence of turf and soil. Wetting agents applied during Spring and early Summer are now exhausted. Applying them again now allows reticulation to re-penetrate and hydrate the lawn for many weeks into Autumn, preventing irrigation and rainfall pooling on the surface. Wetting agents are applied free-of-charge with every application of Wintergrass pre-emergent herbicide.
Prior to winter is the most important feeding of the year. As the weather cools down, so does the growth rate and vigour of your lawn. This year we are blending kelps, bio-stimulants and trace elements with a proven slow-release fertiliser to give lawns a sustained feed and help them maintain vigour and optimal condition through the cooler, shadier months.
If your lawn has built up a thick thatch/organic layer over the peak growing months, we can help with an Autumn groom. Please note, this isn’t as dramatic or deep as a Spring vertimow, and is aimed at spongy, hard-to-mow Buffalo surfaces that are fairly common throughout the metropolitan area. An application of wetting agent is included with your grooming/vertimowing.
