Lawns start growing as soon as the days get longer and weather conditions improve. If you think your lawn needs a trim at this time of year then make sure the blades are at the highest setting and try not to do it more than twice during March. Grass needs to adapt to warmer temperatures before being given too many haircuts!
March is the time to inspect your lawn for any signs of diseases or moss. Try to use organic products if you must treat your lawn, preferably digging up any moss and re-seeding rather than using strong chemicals that can harm wildlife.

Debbie - who has written 872 posts on My Climate Change Garden.
I am not an experienced gardener - more of an enthusiastic amateur who learns by trial and error and who is keen to "manage" the effects of shifting weather patterns on my garden.
Writing this blog is my passion and it has evolved over 12 years to inspire engagement with climate change outside our back doors, in our personal gardens and green spaces.
My mission is to fertilise and expand this platform to grow a community of global gardeners communicating about the effects of climate change on our plants and exploring how each individual can make small changes in our lives to become more sustainable.
The future of our gardens and #OurPlanet is in our hands - please plant your own seeds for our collective sustainable future.
