Lawn watering
When is the most proper time to sow the
lawn? The optimum weather is since the end of April till the beginning of
September, when the air and soil temperature are proper for the grass to
germinate and grow well.
Prepare and treat the soil before arranging the lawn and planting the grass.
* Remove all the junks, wires, crocks or stones, any residues which are
larger than 2 cm from the soil and by 5-6 cm deep. * Dig in the soil from 20
cm deep, especially id it's too dry and solid. The digging has to be
repeated for three times before planting the grass, with one week pause. *
Avoid the weeds from the root and assure yourself that they will never grow
on the lawn. * Then mince the stoned soil peaces till it's getting fine.
This procedure will help you to obtain the best drainage. * Also you have to
fertilize the soil before the lawn sowing. Use some compost and peaty and
fertilizer manure. This soil mix will retain the water and feed the lawn
when it's drought. * Level the surface
First
of all, the lawn is a green area, a relaxing land and also an environmental
valuable support, a region planted with grass or other greenery and
evergreen plants.
Lawn care
Take care about the watering. In the first 3-4 weeks, the soil has to be
kept always moist, but don't let the water to be sloppy. Water the lawn
frequently, even five time in a day if it's necessary and the temperature is
very high. The automatic lawn irrigation machines are very useful if you
aren't there to maintain high the water level.
After the grass sprouting, reduce the watering, but water the lawn enough
for the water to get off and feed the roots. Thus the lawn will be vigorous
and fresh and healthy. We are recommending you to water the lawn every
evening

pruning and lawn maintenance
Shorten the lawn just after it reaches over 6-8 cm, if we're speaking about
the first pruning. When the grass becomes mature enough, can bring up the
pruning level, so that the lawn height reaches 3 cm. This is all you have to
do if you want a lawn garden, an evergreen area to relax in after a hard
work or a tiresome week. Enjoy your weekend surrounded by nature.

Inspect the mower from top to bottom
