Here are some tips to keep your lawn healthy and beautiful.

Therefore, it is necessary to inject by making holes with a plant fork as deep as 5-10 cm with a distance of 10-15 cm. Then fill it with sand or fine humus. The holes will help the plant to absorb water and fresh air into the soil.
4. Keep the grass high to 2.5-3 cm, so that the grass grows well and looks beautiful. Likewise, pruning too much will cause dryness at the base and the grass looks bald.
5. The use of flush tools such and sprayer will be better because the water is given smoothly and evenly.
6. The use of organic fertilizers needs to be done so that the soil remains loose and is expected to accelerate the process of absorption of food by plants.
