There are a number of common lawn mistakes that homeowners can make that can 'unintentionally sabotage' their grassy havens, a gardening expert has warned

Many gardeners dream of owning a verdant, envy-inducing lawn that requires minimal effort to maintain but there's more to it than just the occasional mow and water.

Gardening aficionado Oliver Johnson from HomeAdviceGuide.com sheds light on a few common lawn errors and offers advice on avoiding these pitfalls. Additionally, he provides simple lawn care tips to ensure your property remains in peak condition. There's no need for further hydration if the weather has been wet. However, during periods of dry spells, it's advisable to provide roughly an inch of water per week to maintain lawn moisture without waterlogging, reports the Express.

Chris Bonnett, the founder of Gardening Express, has shared some sage advice for those looking to keep their lawns in tip-top shape. He warns that the "worst mistake you can make" with long grass is cutting it too short, as this can "damage the roots, encourage weeds and damage lawnmowers".
