March 10th, 2010 | by |

A perfectly designed and properly maintained lawn multiplies the charm of your garden.  Garden lawns are both decorative and functional. It is often said that a garden without a lawn is incomplete.  But lawns need much more care because any defects like overgrowth, diseased patches, weeds etc could not only harm the lawn, but also destroy the aesthetic beauty of the garden.  This is why you need to take proper lawn care.

There are many aspects involved in the process of properly maintaining the lawn.  The most important of all is that suitable grass should be planted according to the climate of the area.  That is why in colder regions such grass varieties are planted which remain green through the winter.  It is also preferable to see the month you are planting the grass since planting at the wrong time can spoil your entire efforts.

You need to take proper lawn care by providing it with the mandatory water and dung.  Moving helps the turf maintain its perfect health.  You need to be sure of the quantity of water and manure applied since overfeeding or underfeeding could end up in the grass getting sick.  Each sort of grass has its own wants.  Compost, corn gluten meal etc are highly effective in conserving the greenness of your lawn.

Have you ever felt that your lawn needs improvement of some sort?  Most of us do but fail to bring about noteworthy changes due to lack of knowledge as to what should be done.  Firstly, you need to inspect your lawn thoroughly for bald patches, insect growth, weeds, water accumulation, discoloration etc.  You need to analyze as to what is causing these defects and start treatment accordingly.  In most cases, shady plants cause bald patches.  If you continue to plant additional grass there, the result would not only be negative, but can prove to be expensive too.

You should not think that lawn care is a very troublesome process.  If you persistently keep a tab on various sides of the turf like the plants, the grass, trees around, the turf, the borders etc, the process would become less complicated.  The feeding process, watering, protection from being walked by careless folks, impedance of pest and weed growth etc need adequate attention from your part.
