Drought tolerant grass is a type of grass that needs 8 hours of sunshine a day and, when it reaches maturity, it resists drought and the scorching summer sun, requiring less water to survive. The main species of grass in the composition of lawn mixtures destined for hot and low-water regions is Festuca Arundinaceea. So, when you buy seeds for a drought resistant lawn, check the composition and make sure that the content of Festuca Arundinaceea is as high as possible, preferably around 60%. The other species can be varieties of Lolium and Poa. It is important to know that the resistance of this type of lawn starts only when the grass reaches maturity, not when it has barely germinated from the seed. So, it has to be sown and watered like any other lawn. As for fertilization, this type of lawn also needs the same essential elements, including Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium. The only observation is that you should avoid fertilizing the lawn during drought, because otherwise, it wi...

Unlike chemical fertilizers, which have only a short-term effect and are harmful to the environment, organic fertilizers are the best for maintaining the health of the soil and plants. They provide the exact amount of nutrients that plants need to grow healthy and strong. The main nutrients that are found in the composition of organic fertilizer are phosphorus, potassium, nitrogen, calcium and iron. Plants need a fertile soil that helps them grow healthy. The soil contains living organisms, such as worms, algae or bacteria, which are beneficial in various ways. Chemical fertilizers destroy them, but organic fertilizers maintain the natural balance and support the development of these small organisms, keeping intact the nutritional qualities of the soil, while also protecting it from erosion. Last but not least, organic fertilizers do not affect the environment.  Unlike chemical fertilizers, which pollute soil and water, organic solutions have no negative impact. In addition to...

In order for our plants to look healthy and beautiful, it is necessary to fertilize them throughout their growing season, which usually coincides with the spring and summer months. They, like us, need nutrients so that their organism can perform its functions properly. Organic liquid fertilizers, being organic matter, are most recommended when you want to fertilize your flower garden and lawn, as they do not adversely affect neither the plants nor the fauna that lives on/ in the ground. Also, they allow plants to have natural growth and development. This means that the roots will take only what they need, making the plants grow really healthy, which, in turn, will allow the gardener to enjoy a more productive and beautiful garden or lawn. A good organic liquid fertilizer can also correct the deficiencies existing in macro and microelements. They catalyze the reactions in the soil, accelerating the chemical and microbial transformations at the root level, favoring the increase by 2...

Since the installation of the lawn, by sowing or adding turf rolls, the plants need help to stimulate the rapid germination of the seeds, support the development of the roots, increasing their resistance to breakage and traffic, obtaining a uniform lawn, without thinned or missing grass areas and for a better long-term resistance to climate and diseases. Quality organic fertilizers are increasingly used as part of your organic lawn care because they decompose slowly, which allows plants to assimilate them, do not burn plants, precisely because they are slowly released, enrich the soil with organic matter and stimulate microorganisms, feed the soil, help to the optimal development of the lawn, are environmentally friendly and do not contain chemicals, which makes them safe for humans, pets and plants. In addition, they have a balanced content of mineral substances N, P, K. Organic fertilization of the lawn is carried out using compost or biohumus (vermicompost). These natural agents...

The seeds for a drought-resistant lawn are specially designed for a dry climate and for spaces without an automated irrigation system or with low drainage. Coming from a mixture of seeds with a high degree of purity and germination (which is generally based on Festuca rubra, but also includes lower percentages of seeds from species such as Lolium perenne, Festuca heterophylla, or Festuca arudinacea), the resulting lawn is characterized by well-developed roots and a healthy foliage. In drought conditions, the lawn maintains its green color and has a nice overall aspect. Drought-resistant lawn seeds are the ideal choice for those who want a beautiful lawn without working too hard for it. They also represent the most sustainable drought tolerant grass solution to save water, energy and time resources. Moreover, such a lawn has other properties, such as a high resistance to pests and diseases, an increased tolerance to the lack of nutrients in the soil and resistance to traffic. Theref...

Some of the diseases of the lawn result in brown spots, which represent areas of dead grasses. There are several kinds of diseases that may generate such symptoms, from those caused by fungi to the brown patches on lawn caused by pet urine . Regardless of the cause, a lawn with problems is unsightly and you must take measures to limit the affected areas and to prevent the appearance of diseases in the future. In addition to the specific treatment, depending on the identified disease, the best measure is to plant, right from the start, a variety of resistant grass. There are different types of grass, as well as mixtures of seeds specially designed and adapted to specific conditions – climatic or related to the exploitation of the lawn. Often, when it comes to the choice of lawn seeds, there are several common criteria that are the basis of people’s decision: picking up the best varieties to grow a lawn with a beautiful appearance, which is easy to plant and will grow quickly, which...

In addition, it allows a better management of household waste, because organic waste is actually great to feed the lawn. Steps for organic lawn care Assess the condition of the soil Examine the soil and determine if it contains enough organic matter, has a balanced pH, and allows proper water drainage. These aspects are essential, because otherwise the grass is prone to remain weak and accumulate weeds. Add topsoil and saw quality grass The basis of the organic lawn must be built with topsoil (at least 6 inches), due to its high concentration of organic matter and microorganisms. This element allows the soil foundations to remain firm, provide them with good ...

Preventing brown patches on lawn is important for maintaining its health and appearance. The patches are often caused by a number of different stressors, primarily being triggered by the presence of pet urine. As a result, it’s important to take measures from the start to prevent your pets from playing on the lawn. Such methods can include pet training techniques, the installation of fences, or the planting of herbs that discourage animals from getting too close.

This can help improve soil structure and provide nutrients to your grass, which can prevent patches from forming.   In a dry climate, consistent and deep watering can help prevent patches on your lawn by providing enough moisture for the grass to grow and preventing dry spots. Water in the early morning or late evening to redu...
