Home Lawns and Landscaping
Please look after your investment and maintain your Legend couch grass:
Watering
- Water only when your lawn needs it. How often you water your lawn will depend on the weather and the soil you have
- The grass should be allowed to partly dry out between waterings. This lets in air to the root system, stimulates deeper root formation and creates a healthy more drought resistant lawn
Fertilising
- Fertilise regularly all year to ensure a healthy lawn and to deter weeds
- Apply a complete lawn food (22:5:8 or similar) at 30-40 grams per square metre
- Spread fertiliser evenly and water well, heavy concentrations will burn the lawn
Mowing
- Mow regularly at 15-30mm
- Keep mower blades sharp
- Severely reducing height in one cut should be avoided (no more than 1/3 of leaf height to be cut off in any one mowing)
- Low mowing will damage lawn
