Prepare your lawn for winter in Walddorfhäslach – Tips for a healthy lawn

Autumn is crucial for the health of your lawn. With the right care measures, the lawn can survive the cold season well and sprout vigorously and lush green in spring. In this article, we show you how to optimally prepare your lawn in Walddorfhäslach for winter.

1. Last Cut

Mow the lawn before it goes dormant for winter, ideally at temperatures above 5°C. The cutting height should be set to approximately 4cm to avoid weakening the lawn.

2. Apply Autumn Fertilizer

Use autumn fertilizer with a higher potassium content. Potassium strengthens the grass for frost and cold. One fertilization cycle is sufficient; pay attention to the dosage according to the manufacturer's instructions.

3. Scarifying

Scarifying removes moss and thatch, promotes aeration, and facilitates water absorption. Mow the lawn beforehand, remove leaves, and lightly water if necessary. Afterward, overseeding can be done if there are bare patches.

4. Remove Leaves

Regular removal of leaves prevents rot and diseases. Use rakes or leaf blowers and ensure a clean turf.
