Talkback: Autumn lawn care

winter? I'm a strong believer of putting in the hard work of autumn lawn care. If you want a first rate lawn carrying out the long winded tasks of scarifying, aerating and top dressing is essential. I have recently carried out all of these tasks, all by Mark

lawn

Could someone please advise me on how to treat a 30-year old,seriously compacted lawn (on a thin layer of soil). There is a lot of worm activity at the moment, which presumably is helping to aerate the soil. The overall condition, though, is so bad by hortensia4

Ants in compost bin

it down a bit would probably have made them move out - but they're not doing any harm in there anyway. They were probably keeping it aerated which helps the composting process. Anyway, what to do for now? Is the compost made - is it crumbly and lovely by lilly3

Lawn maintainace

in advance Nathalie My advice is to stay off it and leave it alone till the Spring-it is getting too late for any treatments and walking on it is doing more harm than good You can still do aerating, topdressing, and feeding then Just ignore and don't look by Pebble Garden

Soil

as you can, wiggling it back and ofrth and then pour sharp sand down the holes to improve drainage and aeration. Annual mulching in autumnw ith a few inches of well rotted garden comost and/or manure will also help. The worms will work it in over by George Dyson

Lawn problem

patch to aerate it, before chucking seed and compost (if that's what you decide to do having seen other people's advice). As an "other people" I agree totally with Busy-Lizzie. "nuff said from me. Good luck with it. by steve forbes
