We all want our garden lawn to look its best. But you might not be aware that something called thatch could be causing a whole host of issues.
In case you’re not already aware, thatch is essentially the layer of organic matter that sits just above the soil’s surface, at the base of its stems. It’s typically made up of side shoots, dead grass, moss and other lawn debris and it can accumulate over time, thus preventing essential nutrients and water from getting into the soil. Because of this, dethatching is integral to lawn care for keeping your soil and lawn in good condition.
