If you’re new to gardening and don’t know where and how to start, this blog post will certainly go a long way toward helping you grow your garden like a boss. There’re a number of points we’ve gathered that are necessary for a healthy garden. Let’s find out what you need to do with your garden:
Check your grass
You need to see if your grass is okay for your region. If you’re living in Northern climates, Kentucky bluegrass, fescue, and perennial ryegrass are good options for you. But if you live in southern areas, you should consider investing Bermuda grass or zoysia grass as they grow quite well in the southern climates.
Make your soil more fertile before planting
It’s important that you aerate your garden soil prior to planting new grass. This main reason behind this is to increase oxygen, nutrient, and water movement in your soil. You are supposed to spread the seed thoroughly and evenly, and add light film of soil over seeds. Then, water your garden soil until it’s moist. You need to be careful when watering your garden as too much water can drown seed, which can lead to poor garden growth.
Be sure to fertilize the lawn
If you’re having trouble distributing fertilizer all over your yard, consider using a spreader to thoroughly spread the fertilizer. You can fertilize from April to early June, and from late September to November. However, you need to be very cautious when picking the right fertilizer for your garden. One may be bewildered by different fertilizers available in the market. It’s crucial that you consult with an agriculture expert to get the best plan for your garden.
