No Fuss November Lawncare
Frosty lawns, cold winds, winter is here! The summer months of leisure in the garden have now turned into days spent inside escaping the cold.
At this time of the year, mowing should be kept at a minimum, and our previous tips should have helped you achieve a lawn that requires no additional attention. However there a few things to consider this month...
Continue keeping the lawn clear
We have mentioned this previously, but keeping leaves away really will benefit your lawn this Winter. A build up leaves will encourage garden pests as well as block light and moisture. Moss maintenance is probably not something you want to carry out on a chilly day,
Empty Lawnmower Fuel
When storing your lawnmowers and garden equipment for an extended time, it's important to drain fuel, as it will not keep. Our products are designed to endure all weather conditions, but this simple task will prevent any problems when starting up your mower again.
With these steps in check, you can begin to enjoy a simple pleasure of the Winter season. Log fires.
Maybe you have access to firewood in your own garden, or you may have to transport it from elsewhere. At World Of Mowers, we have a great range of trailers and carts that are ideal for carrying logs and firewood of any size or weight.

Winter is coming - Are you prepared?
Although we are adamant to admit it, Autumn is here. Mowing is now needed less frequently and your gardening tasks should be focused on fertilising, moss control and of course, those forever falling leaves.
We have a great range of versatile products to help you jump in to your autumn lawn care routine and be prepared right up until spring.

Not keeping up with leaf removal will result in them rotting and causing damage to your lawn.
At World Of Mowers, we carry a wide range of petrol leaf blowers, available in various sizes and models. This useful piece of equipment will make clearing leaves an easy and effortless task, meaning you will have no excuse to let autumn debris build up.

How to Look After Your Lawn When Winter Arrives
It feels as if we have barely had a summer this year so when it comes to thinking about winter lawn care it seems as if we are always preparing for the cold months rather than the warm ones!
Grass barely grows throughout the winter months so you don’t need to be constantly mowing your lawn, the best approach is to let your lawn rest as much as possible during winter so you can have a lush lawn come spring/summer time. It is advised to keep off wet or frosty grass otherwise you will damage your lawn, the grass will not be able to repair it’s self until the spring if it is impaired throughout the winter.
Mowing
As discussed previously, it is not necessary to continuously mow your lawn as the growth rate will rapidly slow. Depending on the weather conditions and temperatures your grass will either continue to grow or not, if it looks like it needs a trim then mow if necessary. However, never mow your grass if heavy frosts are predicted to follow shortly or if the ground is very wet.
Make sure that your mower is kept in good condition whilst you are not using it as you will need it when spring arrives. Always make sure that the blades are in good condition as this is the major service requirement for a mower.
Leaves and Debris
Over time your lawn will become untidy due to leaves and debris, the use of a light rake or brush will rid your lawn of all free leaves and debris. Try not to use too much force or heavy machinery on your lawn as this will create damage.
Aeration
Consolidated areas of your lawn will need aerating, this can be done by a fork or a spiking machine. Aeration is the process of creating little holes in your soil to relieve compaction, improve drainage and allow more air into the roots which will result in a healthier lawn.
Worms
Don’t be put off by having worms wiggling around your garden, worms actually improve the nutrient content of soil and are beneficial to the soil structure. Worm casts can be brushed or swept away with a stiff brush when dry.
Even though it seems you don’t have to do much to keep your lawn in good condition throughout winter, it is essential that you keep doing these things to look after it so you can have a healthy lawn in spring.

How to look after your lawn in Autumn
After a dismal summer where we endured grey skies and dodging rain drops it’s fair enough to say that our lawns have suffered with us too over the period. In order to keep your lawn in top shape it will really need a bit of tender love and care at this time of year.
In autumn it is essential to keep looking after your lawn as it is still growing season. Spending time now to look after your lawn will make sure that it doesn’t suffer at the hands of a harsh winter to come.
So what do you have to do in order to achieve the goal of a healthy looking lawn throughout the autumn period? Well it will only take a few simple steps, the right equipment and the will power to look after your lawn will suffice.
Mowing
Autumn is the time of year when the growth rate of grass will start to slow down. This is due to the drop in temperatures and the days becoming shorter, this will result in the need to mow your grass becoming less frequent.
Feeding
In order to keep your lawn in top condition you will need to make sure you supply your lawn with an autumn feed. This is because over the period you will need to provide your lawn with essential nutrients so it doesn’t become infested with disease and will remain strong throughout winter.
Scarifying
Scarifying your lawns means that you will need a spring-tine rake to rake your lawn. This important process needs to be done thoroughly to eliminate dead grass, moss, and other debris. Doing this process will allow your grass to get better access to water and food which in turn will create a healthier lawn.
Aeration
Aeration is the process of taking a fork or a spiking machine and piercing the lawn in multiple places in order to improve drainage, heal the effects of constant use and improve the air flow within the soil. Doing this will put you on the path to a perfect lawn.
Topdressing
Topdressing is a procedure to fix any uneven or malnourished patches within your lawn. Simply dress the top of your lawn with your mixture (you can buy a premade topdressing from a good garden centre). To make sure that the mixture is perfectly spread over your lawn invest in a garden broom, this will ensure that the mixture covers the holes you have made previously.
The process of looking after your lawn can provide good exercise and quality fresh air, but most importantly it will provide you with a lawn that you can be proud of. For more information on gardening tips and products check out our website World of Mowers.
