Only top dress your lawn to remove the lumps

A common question asked by many is, "Should I aerate, scarify and top dress my lawn?" The quick answers are as follows.

1. Lawn Top Dressing:

The best thing for lawn top dressing is river sand, which can be purchased in bagged quantities from your local nursery. River sand remains soft (unlike regular topsoil) throughout the hot summer months allowing the turf to easily take hold.

Remember, after aerating you need to follow up with good watering so as to maintain a wet soil profile until the lawn turf grows vigorously. Lawn aeration is best carried out in the warmer seasons for quick recovery.

3. Lawn Scarifying and Combing:

Scarifying your lawn removes thatch (or dead grass material) beneath the healthy turf growth. Thatch is unhealthy for your lawn as it is the breeding ground for fungus lace wigs, disease and pest insects. Regular mowing at a reasonably short height (say 25-30mm depending on the turf species) will help prevent thatch build-up.
