As the seasons shift and the weather becomes more favourable, it is the perfect time to give your lawn the care and attention it deserves. A well-maintained lawn not only enhances the overall appearance of your garden but also contributes to a healthier and more resilient outdoor space. This project outlines a series of essential lawn treatments designed to ensure your grass remains lush, green, and thriving throughout the year. Each step focuses on improving the lawn’s structure,vitality, and overall condition, creating an environment where grass can flourish.
Aeration
Aeration plays a vital role in maintaining lawn health. This process alleviates soil compaction, which commonly occurs due to foot traffic, weather conditions, and natural settling. By creating small holes in the soil, aeration allows air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deeper into the root zone. As a result, the grassroots gain improved access to essential elements, supporting stronger growth and enhanced nutrient absorption. Regular aeration encourages deeper root systems, making the lawn more tolerant of heat, drought, and everyday wear.
Scarification
Scarification is the next important step, focusing on the removal of thatch, the layer of dead grass, moss, and organic matter that builds up on the soil surface. Excessive thatch restricts airflow and prevents water from reaching the roots, ultimately weakening the lawn. By scarifying, you improve circulation, enhance water penetration, and promote a healthier growing environment. This treatment results in a more resilient lawn that responds better to fertilisers and natural rainfall.
Fertilisation
Applying a tailored spring fertiliser provides a much-needed nutritional boost.Fertilisation replenishes nutrients that the soil may be lacking after winter and supports vigorous new growth. A carefully selected fertiliser ensures your lawn receives the right balance of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, improving colour, density, and root strength.
Weed Control
Effective weed control is essential to prevent unwanted plants from competing with your grass. By applying pre-emergent treatments and spot-treating existing weeds, you maintain a clean, uniform lawn. Staying ahead of weed growth preserves the health of your grass and prevents long-term problems.
Overseeding
Overseeding helps fill in thin or bare patches, improving the lawn’s appearance and boosting its overall density. Using high-quality grass seed ensures strong germination and supports long-lasting results.

Although it’s only March, the Acorn Landscape Services team has been making the most of the unseasonably warm weather. After a long, hot day out on various sites, our Greenspace Supervisor, @aaron_hall60, captured this brilliant snap while applying foliar lawn treatments during the cooler evening hours.
Getting Ahead of the Season
March is a crucial month for lawn and landscapecare — it’s the perfect time to set the foundations for a healthy growing season. By applying foliarfeeds early in the year, we give lawns the essential nutrients they need to bounce back from winter stress and start the season strong.
Foliarapplications are absorbed directly through the leaves, providing a fast, efficient nutrient boost. Applying them in the evening, when the sun is lower and moisture is more stable, improves absorption and reduces evaporation, giving your lawn the best possible start to spring.
