Canberra Blend lawns can really feel the heat over summer. 🌞Canberra Blend (Tall Fescue & Kentucky Bluegrass) naturally prefers cooler temps, so when we hit those 27°C+ days, the stress starts to show. 😅Heat stress looks like 👇😬 Grey/blue patches or a “dull” look
🍃 Leaves folding in on themselves
👣 Footprints staying visible
☀️ Dry, crispy texture even after wateringHelp your lawn cope with heat stress by 👇💦 Watering deeply and early (before 9am), 10–15mm at a time
⏰ Watering less often but more thoroughly
💨 Aerating to improve water infiltration
💧 Using wetting agents to fully hydrate the soil profile
📏 Raising your mowing height, the shorter you mow Tall Fescue the more susceptible it will be to heat stressCool-season lawns can stay healthy and green through summer, they just need the right support. 🙌If your lawn is showing signs of heat stress or you want help prepping it for summer, send us a message. We'll assess, treat and build a plan to keep it thriving. 🌱💧#TurfManager #Turf #TurfManagement #TurfGrassManagement #TurfMaintenance #TurfInstallation #Lawn #LawnCare #LawnStripes #LawnsofInstagram #LawnCareLife #Canberra #CanberraBusiness #CanberraLocal #CanberraLocals #TallFescue #KentuckyBluegrass #CanberraSmallBusiness #GreensKeeping #Qualifications #TurfExpert #LawnExpert #LawnFawnatics #LawnFanatics #Auslf #CanberraBlend

I’m am very impressed with the lawn coring services by Tom today. He is professional and knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. I will definitely recommend him and hope to do business on a regular basis on other gardening as well.

Tom did a great job rejuvenating our lawn. He analysed the soil, top dressed, fertilised and treated the weeds. Our lawn is now looking so much better.
