April – June

Selective Weed Control
Now is the ideal time to ensure a good control of annual weeds while
growing conditions are good and there is moisture in the ground.

Total Weed Control
Programme a treatment of all non-grassed surfaces with a total
herbicide while the weeds are young as they are more difficult to
control when established.

Fertiliser Application
Replace nutrients lost through mowing and build a strong root system. Liquid fertiliser applications are ideal as there are no unsightly granules left on the surface.

Aquatic Weeds
Early identification and treatment is important to prevent severe infestation occurring. It is vital that all permissions are sought before treatments are carried out.

Growth Regulators
Applications to retard grass growth can be carried out to reduce mowing frequency and restrict seed head development.

Pest & Disease Control
Apply treatments on newly sown grass against frit fly. Chafer grubs can also be controlled at this time. Preventative fungicide treatments will prevent Fusarium attack.
