How to choose the right lawnmower

Choosing the right lawnmower can seem daunting - but it needn’t be difficult if you follow this guide.

The first thing to consider is the size of your garden. Is it small, medium, large or extra-large? If we use a tennis court as a reference point, small gardens are around half a tennis court, medium up to three quarters and large up to one and a half. Extra-large gardens are half an acre or more and a ride-on mower would be a more appropriate choice.

How landscape gardening is being electrified

Part of the soundtrack to a day in southern California is the drone of petrol-powered gardening equipment.

Noise is one of the main reasons that cities around the US, external are banning petrol landscaping tools or encouraging electric alternatives.

These alternatives have the additional benefits of reducing carbon emissions, vibrations and the exposure of landscapers to pollution.

In addition they can mean longer working hours, as they can be used at times when residents demand quiet.

The switch to quieter electric equipment is not going as fast as some would like.

What do Germination Sheets do...?

Germination sheets aim for quicker germination by creating/enhancing a micro climate of conditions, their ideal during cooler spring/autumn sowing windows if a quicker outcome is required during sport pitch renovations. Germination sheets also can speed up grass seed germination at lower temperatures.

The use of germination sheets are a game-changer for sports pitches, especially during cooler spring and autumn sowing windows. They create a microclimate that speeds up germination, regulates temperature, and retains moisture. The black sheets withhold heat, while the open mesh allows light, air, and water to reach the seed.

Grass seed needs moisture and the correct temperature range said to be 8-12c to germinate. Germination sheets can be ideal for raising soil temperatures and help retain moisture during colder spells.
