Prepare the lawn in March: With these tips it will work
The temperatures rise slowly in March and hobby gardeners can now devote themselves to the lawn.
In the first step, you should
clear
the
lawns of leaves and branches lying around

By scarifying the lawn, you can do two steps in one.
First, the
lawn is aerated
and, second, the moss is removed.

hausgarten.net
reveals, this step is particularly important among experts so that the lawn can grow back properly even in winter.
