Autumn Gardening Jobs
Written by John Harrison on 14th Aug 2015.
Autumn is the time to restore and repair your lawn after a summer as a games field for the children. Start by scarifying ? raking out any moss and dead grass which builds up into a thatch restricting the grass growth.
Spiking the lawn will improve drainage ready for the winter rain. Just insert a fork about 15 cm into the ground, rock it back and forth to open the hole and then repeat about 30 cm ahead. For bowling green standards, use a special hollow tined fork that removes a plug of soil.
