Before setting up a lawn on dry and barren soils, it is recommended to add organic fertilizers such as compost and decomposed manure, or mineral fertilizers such as Azofoska. The last factor determining the later appearance of the lawn is the pH of the soil, which for grass plants should be kept within the pH range of 5.6 - 6.5. Excessive acidity can be reduced by adding a sufficient amount of lime to the soil. Before setting up a lawn, the soil should be free from permanent and annual weeds. For this purpose, weeds are controlled with total herbicides, preferably Roundap. Three weeks after spraying the weeds, the soil should be dug or plowed over large areas, then leveled and left for two weeks or soil compaction should be used.For the establishment of lawns, mixtures of grass seeds of various species and their varieties are most often used. The composition of the mixture is determined by the type and moisture of the soil, climatic conditions, the purpose of the lawn, the anticipated intensity of treading and shading in which the lawn will be used. There are many ready-made mixtures in the course of trade, adapted to the habitat conditions and the way they are used.
LAWN CARE:
WE WILL WIN A MURA
At the beginning of April, when the temperature is above zero, lawns require very careful and careful raking of the grass from the dried-up remains.
ROLLING
It is also good to roll the soil with a heavy roller that presses the roots against the soil. During severe frosts, clumps of grass are pushed upwards and then the roots lose contact with the ground, which contributes to drying up of the ejected parts of the turf.
WE SEW GRASS
After winter, sometimes you can see empty spots on the lawn - cavities. These places are loosened and sown with a mixture of grass.
FIRST MOW
After the winter, the first mowing of the grass is done quite high. The most important thing is that the grass is dry.
FIRST POWER OF THE LAWN
The best time to fertilize the lawn for the first time is right after raking it in and the first mowing. When starting fertilization, it is important that the lawn is dry. On a wet lawn, mineral fertilizers stick to the leaves, causing them to burn.
