Gardeners warned against watering lawn every day amid warmer summer weather
16.06.2022 - 23:31 / dailyrecord.co.uk
As summer approaches keen gardeners may be gearing up the hoses to keep things lush and green.
After all, from having people over to family days out the back, now is the time to get the most out of a garden so you want it to look great.
However you can overdo it, and some experts warn that rigorous daily watering could do more harm than good, say the Mirror.
They also say that you would be as well letting some plants grow out a bit and keeping your veggies protected from the sun
Here are three tips from the gardens and driveways specialists at Marshalls that will help you get your garden to the other end of the heat.
It may seem counterintuitive, but if you give your grass too much water, it is just as damaging as leaving it baking in the sun.
As the experts advice: “When watering grass you are looking to water deeply to ensure there’s enough water to see through a drought.”
Only water during cooler periods of the day and ensure that you only do it once a week.
Watering daily can drown the grass, so you must resist the temptation to keep getting the hose out.
This is another tip that might go against instinct, but now is the worst time to remove any dead-looking leaves.
Cutting plants encourages them to grow and at a time like this it’ll mean they need more water.
The experts advise: “Trimming a plant will signal them to grow, which uses vital energy and water, which obviously needs to be preserved in heat, so wait until the heatwave has passed to give plants a good trim.”
As much as your veggies need the sun to grow, leaving them out to bake while still in the ground is the last thing you want. Nobody wants to find their efforts have gone to waste in the garden, especially when people aim to be more self-sufficient and cut

Hillary Clinton said she is not surprised by the Supreme Court’s recent decision that overturned Roe v. Wade and removed federal protections for abortion, and she warned there is likely even more fallout to come.“I was not surprised, because I think that was the goal of packing the Court with justices who were on the record for many years of being against women’s Constitutional rights to make decisions about our own bodies,” Clinton said on “CBS Mornings” on Tuesday, speaking with Gayle King. “I was deeply sorry that it actually happened.
