Even with a few sunny days behind us, it still feels like the season’s just waking up.

June's warmer temps and longer days are perfect for giving your lawn that final push into lush, green territory.

So if you're ready to get the most out of your garden this summer, here’s your 4-point June Lawn Checklist to keep things thriving.

Let’s get stuck in!

1. June Correct Mowing Practices 🚜

👉 Mow roughly every 7 days as grow is increasing due to the warmth.

👉 1 - 1.5 inches is a good height for this time of the year.

👉 Try to never cut more than ⅓ off at a time or it can stress the grass and turn it yellow.

👉 If it looks like we’re going to have a dry spell, leave your lawn a bit longer as it’ll help it retain more moisture.

2. Weed Control 🌿

Applying a selective herbicide like Weedol for Lawns will get rid of the majority of weeds you will encounter.

If there aren’t many you can also remove these manually by digging them out from the root (and reseed if they leave patches).

3. Fertilising 👷🏼‍♂️

​⭐ If you have not applied any feed in the last 8 weeks, applying a good summer granular fertiliser will kickstart some more luscious growth above the soil and provide your lawn with the nutrients it needs to thrive.

⭐ An NPK ratio of around 19-3-9, which is ideal for summer feeding. Delivering just the right balance of nitrogen for steady greening without pushing weak, fast growth.

💡 Some fertilisers, like the Summer Thriver from The Lawn Pack, include a coated nitrogen formula that releases gradually and helps protect your grass from scorch and stress during dry spells — ideal for UK conditions this time of year.

4. Renovation 🌱

If your lawn is still looking a bit worse for wear or patchy you can still renovate during June.

You may need to water a little more during drier spells but it means the soil is definitely warm enough for fast germination.

Deal with any underlying conditions first such as excess thatch, moss or compaction.

After this you can apply a summer feed such as The Lawn Pack or The Lawn Pack Plus (the latter is for if your lawn is particularly bare or you’re starting from fresh).

Follow summer watering guidelines and your lawn will be transformed within 4 weeks to enjoy for the rest of summer!

That’s your June lawn game plan sorted! ✅

Stick to these simple steps and you’ll be well on your way to a thicker, greener lawn that can handle whatever summer throws at it; heatwaves, barbecues, paddling pools and all.
