During the Early Summer it’s important to:
- Cut regularly at the correct seasonal cuttng height (see tips in our free download)
- Review the lawn for any repairs and over seeding requirements

What the feed will do:

Early Summer watering advice
Replacing water lost from the lawn is essential to maintain colour and prevent the lawn going into drought stress, we have in recent years experienced dry springs, so a good weekly watering now is beneficial.
- If you decide to water; do it well and consistently
- Raise the cut height, this will reduce evaporation
- Don’t panic, when suitable rain levels return the grass will recover quicker because of the care you have given it.
Early Summer lawn cutting
Correct mowing will make the difference between a “so-so” lawn and a great one. These few simple steps make a big difference in your lawns appearance, encouraging a thicker sward and deeper colour:
- A light topping of the grass is always better than a severe “hacking”
- Regular cutting requires less effort
- Keep trimming the edges for that smart professional look.
Recommended Early summer lawn cutting heights
Your lawn appreciates adjusting the cutting height throughout the year, however, if you just want one setting for the entire season use the highest recommendation.
