Fertilize your lawn correctly – this will keep it dense and green. Three to four fertilizer applications per year are ideal for a lawn to show its best side.

Sandy soil needs more nutrients than humus-rich soil. After fertilizing, the lawn should not be mowed for at least two days and should be watered regularly so that the fertilizer can penetrate well. It is not advisable to fertilize the lawn in extremely hot and dry conditions, because at high temperatures the grass stops growing.
