A beautiful, green lawn is the heart of every garden. But to keep your grass looking its best, regular maintenance is essential. At MAYA, we believe in a natural approach to lawn care, keeping both the soil and grass healthy without chemical fertilizers or animal-based ingredients. In this blog, we share the key steps for optimal lawn care and explain how MAYA All-in-One Organic Lawn Fertilizer helps you create a lush, dark green lawn all year round.
Why is lawn care important?
cA healthy lawn requires more than just regular mowing. The grass needs to be nourished, the soil must remain well-aerated, and the lawn should be protected against weeds, diseases, and dehydration. Without proper care, your grass can quickly become dull and unhealthy, making it more susceptible to damage.
By following a good maintenance plan, you ensure your lawn stays strong and maintains a full, healthy appearance. MAYA All-in-One Organic Lawn Fertilizer plays a crucial role in this maintenance by providing your grass with the nutrients it needs for healthy growth.
The 5 most important steps
Regular Mowing
One of the most visible aspects of lawn care is mowing. Mowing encourages the grass to grow thick and strong. It's important not to cut the grass too short—always leave about 4 to 5 centimeters. This protects the grass from drying out and helps maintain a rich, dark green color.
Aerating the Lawn
Aeration is often overlooked, but it’s a vital step in lawn care. By aerating the soil, you improve air and water permeability, which aids in nutrient absorption. You can do this by using a special aerator to create holes in the soil. This allows oxygen, water, and nutrients to penetrate deeper into the ground, leading to healthier root growth.
Fertilizing the Lawn
Your grass needs nutrients to stay healthy, and that’s where MAYA All-in-One Organic Lawn Fertilizer comes in. This organic fertilizer nourishes your lawn naturally, making it healthier, stronger, and greener. Thanks to its plant-based composition, it enriches rather than depletes the soil. Regular fertilization with MAYA ensures that your grass receives the nutrients it needs, without the use of chemical fertilizers that can harm the environment and only provide short-term benefits.
Removing Weeds and Moss
Weeds and moss can quickly overtake your lawn and disrupt healthy grass growth. It's important to remove these unwanted intruders regularly, ideally before the weeds go to seed. For weeds, you can use a manual weeding tool. Moss often develops due to poor soil ventilation or a lack of sunlight (too much shade). By aerating and dethatching regularly, you give your grass a better chance to thrive and prevent moss from taking over.
Watering at the Right Time
Grass needs water to grow. It’s better to water your lawn less frequently but more deeply, encouraging the roots to grow deeper. The best time to water is early in the morning or late in the evening, so the water has time to soak into the ground without evaporating too quickly due to the sun.
A Healthy Lawn All Year Round
By following the basic principles of lawn care and regularly using MAYA All-in-One Organic Lawn Fertilizer, you lay the foundation for a strong and healthy lawn that can withstand all weather conditions. Whether it’s the intense summer sun or the cold of winter, your grass will stay in top condition all year round.
Lawn care is all about consistency and attention, and with MAYA as your partner, you’re not only creating a more beautiful lawn, but also embracing a more sustainable way of gardening.
