Everything seems to be running smoothly, the plants grow strong and healthy in the garden, the grass looks green and radiant and the trees are in that beautiful season in which the fruits add freshness and color.
But little by little, despite using a mower, the image begins to distort when the weeds they rush to cover small spaces to cover every corner, in a slow but continuous process that must be controlled. Otherwise, plants and shrubs will be affected.
That silent enemy
Weeds are found in every garden, they appear out of nowhere and spread easily. In some cases they may not pose great threats but generally affect plants as they compete with their normal development while altering the appearance of the lawn after a long care process.
In the latter case, the appearance of weeds is almost a natural circumstance of every lawn and it is very difficult not to have weeds, so it is best to take continuous care to combat them as they are born.
¿How to avoid the appearance of weeds in the lawn? The first thing you can do is do not cut the grass flush Well, if you leave it a few centimeters high, you will get it to generate a certain shade and thus control the development of weeds, preventing them from germinating. A loose soil is also favorable and that is why you can aerate the lawn as this helps to avoid the appearance of bad stones. If the soil is in good condition, it absorbs rainwater better and thus a more nutrient-rich soil is achieved, which prevents the lawn from dying and weeds from appearing.
In this sense, you can also fertilize the grass in order to enrich the soil. Also remember that watering should be regular, especially during the driest months of the year.
Get away!
If you discover that there is weeds in the lawn from your garden, you can perform a weeding in order to eliminate it. Then the grass will have more room to develop and grow. It is also possible to use herbicideswith the option of chemical or natural ones. If you choose the latter, vinegar, salt or liquid manure are effective.
Boiling water is also effective against weeds, although it must be sprayed precisely on the affected area.
