The Lawn Guide

If you're tired of patchy grass, weeds, and a lawn that never seems to match the photos you see online, The Lawn Guideshows you exactly how to transform your garden into a dense, healthy, professional-quality lawn — without guesswork and without expensive products you don't need. Written by Philip Sharples, an international sports-turf consultant who has built and managed elite football pitches across Europe and the Middle East, this book takes the science used in professional stadiums and translates it into simple, practical steps for homeowners. Inside, you'll discover: ?? The complete, season-by-season plan for lawn care ?? How to choose the right grass seed for your climate and soil ?? The truth about fertilisers — what to use, when, and how much ?? Watering routines that actually build deep, strong roots ?? How to control weeds, moss, and disease safely and effectively ?? Mowing strategies that thicken grass instead of stressing it ?? Renovation methods used on professional sports pitches This is not a 10-page cheat sheet. It's a practical, straight-talking guide designed to be used, referred back to, highlighted, and applied step-by-step in your own garden. Whether you're starting from bare soil or improving an existing lawn, The Lawn Guide will give you the knowledge and confidence to create the best lawn on your street — and keep it that way.
