The Aussie Lawn Care Routine (That Actually Works)

The Aussie Lawn Care Routine (That Actually Works)

Forget the gimmicks. Here’s a seasonal lawn care routine that works for real Aussie backyards — using natural biology, not synthetic shortcuts.

🌱 Spring: Jumpstart Growth

Apply Bactivate Plant Stimulant to encourage root development. Mow regularly but not too short. Start watering deeper and less often.

☀️ Summer: Stay Resilient

Switch to Bactivate Soil Stimulant and Protect. These boost your lawn’s ability to survive heat, dryness, and pest pressure. Water early or late — not in the midday sun.

🍂 Autumn: Strengthen Roots

Use a mix of Plant and Soil Stimulants to support post-summer recovery. This is the best time to aerate or top-dress with compost.

❄️ Winter: Let It Rest

Reduce mowing and watering. Light application of Soil Stimulant helps maintain biology over the colder months.

Year-Round Tips:

  • Mow at medium height — don’t scalp it
  • Don’t over-fertilise — go natural
  • Use a watering can or hose-on sprayer for even product coverage

Stick to this routine and your lawn will reward you — season after season.
