Caring for your lawn isn't a task that you can take up and put down whenever you want. If you want to have a lovely lush and green lawn then you will need to take care of it throughout the year. This is true of any time of year, but especially during the spring. With this in mind, here are a couple of simple lawn care tips for the spring.

After the winter your lawn may well appear to be either lush and green, or completely barren and dry. Thankfully, spring is the right time of year for you to re-seed your lawn and put down sod on the dry patches.

It's certainly very important to you to make sure that once you have put down any new seeds or sod that you ensure you provide plenty of water to your lawn throughout the week. Of course, if there is plenty of rain around then this won't be too much of a problem, but if not you will need to make sure that you out there providing all the water that it needs.

It's not necessarily going to be a very good idea for you to fertilise your lawn during the spring time. The reason for this is because the nitrogen present within the fertiliser is likely to make the blades of grass grow more quickly than the roots. As such the roots aren't going to take hold properly and this can lead to problems when summer turns up and the roots aren't able to conserve sufficient amounts of water.

Most people do struggle with the weeds at any time of year, and the same is certainly true during the spring time. Of course, there are plenty of different weedkiller products that you can use to help you out and as such you should try to find something appropriate to keep the weeds away as your lawn regrows.

Take these steps properly and your lawn should turn out very nicely.
