Seed heads in lawn
I have a couple of areas of lawn that I have been trying to maintain to
a high standard over the last 5 years, to get that green carpet effect. I feed, weed, mosskill, water and mow with a cylinder mower regularly. It has been going quite well but suddenly this year I have large patches of whitish seed heads appearing in a number of areas. It is obviously some sort of grass, so I don't suppose it will be affected by lawn weedkillers. I've lowered the cutters on my mower which removed some, but nothing like all of the seedheads. Any ideas about how I can discourage this stuff? TIA Steve |
