I am still a novice when it comes to lawns, but I love it and enjoy studying and learning from the Pros. I mow once or twice a week with my old girl “Bonnie” the 17in Scott Bonnar 45 and trim the edges with my new Ryobi 36V trimmer. Keen to get a PRS for it one day. I use CK88 mostly for granular fert and have Bering using the Ben Sims pack from Plant Doctor Fortnightly, alternating iron and active mate8. I have used lawn pride products previously, but find Plant Doctor a bang for buck product for my lawn. I used 2spec Accelerate after my Reno in late September and am keen to use it again. Again, a movie to it all, but trying really hard to learn and improve!

I have learnt a lot and am continuing to enjoy learning and seeing the results. I am mowing a few times a week and loving it and have found it fascinating seeing what effects different products can make! The photos taken are just after a reno done a few weeks ago. I never thought shoveling sand all day could be so rewarding!

I’ll continue doing this through the growing season and back off what is not needed through the cooler seasons.

What's your lawn care process?

From the beginning of spring, I spray every two weeks largo, Renaissance, iron maid and retain pro. I also use activate mate every week from Plant Doctor and every third week I’ll throw down some gradual fertiliser – Vanderlands pro turf. Start of spring, I’ll also throw down acelepryn Gr to keep on top of grubs and I spray out with bow and arrow once a month to keep on top of the weeds. I’ll continue doing this through the growing season and back off what is not needed through the cooler seasons.
