A simple trick to revive your lawn and impress the neighbors

A well-maintained lawn is the hallmark of every home. No wonder we dream of a lawn that will amaze the neighbors.

The key to a beautiful lawn is regular care. It's best to mow the grass every week to a height of about 1.6 inches. This ensures a thick and healthy appearance. However, it's important to remember that during a heatwave and right after planting new grass, it shouldn't be cut to less than 2 inches.

But what should you do if, despite regular care, the lawn loses its beauty? There is a way!

Even with the best care, our garden can suffer from drought or neglect in watering. A simple, homemade fertilizer can effectively revive a yellowed and dried lawn.

The first step is to clean it of dead blades thoroughly. For this purpose, it is best to use a rake. Removing dry debris will allow the grass to breathe better and absorb nutrients.

Then, we move on to fertilizing. Homemade compost, such as from dandelion or nettle, works perfectly here. It provides essential nutrients like phosphorus, nitrogen, and potassium. Spread it evenly over the lawn, then water thoroughly.

The lawn should be mowed a few days after fertilizing. It should look greener and healthier. If dry patches are still visible, it requires more profound regeneration.

A beautiful lawn is the result of regular care and patience. Even if the results are not spectacular initially, do not get discouraged. Consistency in care and using proven tricks will surely bring the desired results.

It's a good idea to use aeration. This is a procedure that restores the lawn to its former glory. It involves poking holes in the turf with a fork or a unique aerator. This allows the soil to breathe better and absorb nutrients and water. In locations where bare patches remain, more grass should be sown.
