The mild weather in Glasgow and Central Scotland means that grass has actually been growing and we have had the mowers out on a few occasions.</span></p><p><span style="color: black; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">Up until the start of February many lawns were incredibly boggy. There had been a lot of rainfall on top of hard ground which left it pooling, unable to drain properly. During this time we stayed away from lawns as far as possible to prevent any root damage and surface marking. But now things appear to be a bit warmer (despite the forecast for snow tomorrow!) we have been able to get out and do some raking, edging and clearing up all sorts of debris and leaves from our lawns.</span></p><p><span style="color: black; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">The aim for 2012 is to ensure that, as always, our lawns are properly cut, fed and treated. Much of the ground in Bearsden and Milngavie is clay so most of our lawns benefit from top dressing, generally after being aerated with hollow tines. Any steps that improve the clay soil structure generally benefit grass growth, from air and water transfer to nutrient uptake and root growth. A lawn with compacted soil and poor grass roots will not last for very long.</span></p><p><span style="color: black; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">In general, we are looking forward to the season and again being able to offer our clients exactly the lawn treatment they require. No extras or unnecessary sales, just thorough and dependable lawn treatment.</span></p><p> </p></div>
