Most of us love to decorate our house as well as our backyard to make it more presentable and pleasant to look at by our neighbors and our family. Perhaps you're one of the many individuals who dreams at night of having their dream lawn that's so healthy green and luscious to look upon. If so, you can grab your gardening tools and follow this guide as we will teach you on how to achieve that lawn you long desired to have.
You should know that in order to have a good garden, you should start with your lawn as it will help on highlighting your beautiful garden. In setting up a lawn, all you need to have is the grass that you prefer to have on your yard, the gardening tools that you will need when planting and taking care of the lawn. When everything is all set, then you're ready to begin your dream lawn!
Take time on choosing which type of grass you would want to have on your lawn and be sure that what you picked is something that will fit on the weather and the climate in your place. Planting something that is not accustomed or will not survive on your climate and weather is just a waste of your time and effort as it will not thrive.
As you begin your lawn, make sure that you dig deep so that you can have a lot of earth to pulverize. Condition the soil and make sure that you break it up thoroughly to make it a better soil to plant your grass. The consistency of the soil determines the success of planting healthy grasses. After you have set your soil to its right condition, you can now slowly add fertilizer by adding a small amount of it to the soil to avoid burning the grass. However, keep in mind though that these grasses are weeds to start off, so basically they are tough and they don't need much fertilizer. Too much fertilizer will destroy your lawn instead of giving beneficial results. You can also opt to choose organic fertilizers which are much safer to use and are much cheaper compared to chemical fertilizers. Recent research says that chemical fertilizers can destroy your crops and plants without the proper use of it. So if ever you choose to use chemical fertilizers, keep in mind to read and follow all of the instructions especially the dosage of the chemical you are putting to your lawn as well as on your plants. Much better yet, use the organic fertilizers such as the worm castings that are way cheaper and doesn't matter if you put too much as they are organic and won't burn your grass.
So if you're ready to make your new lawn, follow these simple guidelines so that you can have that dream lawn of yours. And always put into careful consideration to give importance to your family's safety when using any kind of chemical fertilizers. Have fun on planting!
