Lawns and Turfing – Conditions are perfect for work.

Conditions are perfect for work on lawns. The soil is warm and moist from all the rain so growth is rapid. Grass seed and turf for new lawns and turfing will root and establish quickly. Apply an autumn lawn food before sowing or turfing. They are low in nitrogen and high in phosphates and encourage roots and stiffen leaves ahead of winter. Weeds are growing strongly so selective lawn weedkillers can still be effective but be quick. Cut the lawn, leave it for a few days so new weed leaf grows, then water on the selective treatment. Wait as long as possible – 7 to 10 days – before mowing again to allow the chemical to be taken down into the root.

Garden Fencing – Is this Britain’s dullest competition?

In the midst of difficult times for Britain, one website is doing its best to cheer up the nation – by launching a competition to find the country’s best garden fencing. But though you might not expect this contest to get a warm reception, the public seems to have taken to the task enthusiastically.People do love their garden fencing. LocalTraders.com, the company organising the competition, says that garden fences are ‘undervalued’, and ‘it’s time that they got their moment in the spotlight.’ Private: Charlotte Samuel from Leeds uses this fence to escape neighbours’ prying eyes   Safe: Ron Davies from Loggerheads in Staffordshire says, ‘We only put the fence up last week but it stands out well and has made the garden feel more secure.’ However, the firm acknowledges that not all of us are fence fans – so they’re also asking for readers to send in their most hated examples, to ‘name and shame the worst offenders’. Sarah Howe, LocalTraders.com’s marketing manager, insists the competition is not a joke. ‘People take their fences seriously and spend a lot of cash on them,’ she told the Sun. ‘It may not be the glitziest competition in the world. But without fences, who knows where we would be?’ Industrial: John from Newcastle-under-Lyme has ‘real confidence’ in his heavy-duty fence Roses: Margaret from Dundee loves her trellis, but worries it won’t last much longer   Low-maintenance: James from Exeter is enthusiastic about his tanalised fence, saying this method of rot protection is ‘always the best’   Members of the public seem to agree with this assessment, as several have already sent in snaps of their pride and joy, in the belief that their fence has the ‘star quality’ required by the competition. Ken Edwards boasts of the ‘functional and decorative’ fence at his Staffordshire home, while privacy-loving Charlotte Samuel from Leeds says, ‘The fence blocks my garden off from my neighbours, which I love, and means I can enjoy a glass of wine in the evening with my boyfriend in private.’ Meanwhile, James from Exeter is clearly proud of his rot-proof tanalised fence, saying: ‘Tanalised fencing is always the best in my eyes.’ Multi-purpose: Ken Edwards from Meir Heath, Staffordshire, thinks his fence is ‘both functional and decorative’ Freshly-painted: Ruth Carroll is proud of the fence at her Coventry home   Damaged: Charlie from Derby blames his brother for putting his fence up incorrectly Not all entrants are so enthusiastic about their fences, however. Emma Dorsey, from Stoke, says: ‘I hate my fence and can’t wait to replace it’. Householders who think they can beat the examples pictured here have until September 30 to enter the contest by emailing getoffthefence@localtraders.com. Although there is no prize for the winner, the joy of having Britain’s best fence will presumably be satisfaction enough for the lucky champion.
