The first photo was taken on 13th July and the second 14th August — quite a difference!
After weeks of hot, dry weather our lawn was looking very sorry for itself: dry, patchy and definitely more brown than green.
Now, I know watering a lawn in summer divides opinion… BUT we are not currently in a hosepipe ban area, so we made the decision to give ours some TLC. 💦
We’ve been watering daily and have also used the Summer Seasonal Pack from The Lawn Pack, which has helped it bounce back beautifully. 💚
For us, though, it isn't just about wanting a lovely green lawn.
We have two gorgeous four-legged lawn destroyers 🐾🐾 whose wees leave lovely burnt patches behind 😂, and underneath all that grass is heavy clay soil. If we let the lawn completely dry out, the clay cracks badly in summer… then come winter it turns into a muddy swamp!
We've been using The Lawn Pack for about a year now and noticed a huge improvement last winter, particularly with how the lawn coped with the wet weather and two sets of muddy paws.
So we're hoping that by looking after it through the summer, it'll go into autumn and winter stronger and we'll see an even bigger improvement this year. 🤞🌱
13th July ➡️ 14th August.
I'm pretty impressed with that transformation!
