Welcome to Garden King's Plant Doctor Blog, where our experts discuss and answer all your gardening questions. This week I'm talking about problem slugs and rescuing your lawn.
These are two hot topics which our customers are asking us for advice on and there's no better time to get out in the garden and get cracking.
The hard work you've put in to make your plants beautiful can literally disappear overnight if you don't protect them from slugs. At Garden King we sell a range of organic and modern slug killers, if you use slug pellets like ERAZA Slug & Snail Killer - scatter them thinly to reduce the threat to surrounding wildlife - always read the label before using any chemicals in your garden.
One of our customers came in this week with their gorgeous labrador Sadie, who had sadly. Sadie had made a bit of a mess of the customer's lawn and 
they wanted a product that would fix the problem without having to dig up the whole lawn and start again. We stock a product from the Aftercut range, it comes in a handy trial size pack which is big enough to treat one problem patch.
Aftercut Patch Fix is a special blend of lawn seed, seeding soil, organic feed and super absorbent urine neutraliser. It's a quick fix which repairs lawns in days. It's ideal for treating high traffic areas, areas damaged with pet urine and shady spots.
Aftercut Patch Fix contains a special ingredient that absorbs the harmful salts and ammonia produced when pet urine breaks down, helping grass to re-establish where it would otherwise fail. Even better, Aftercut Patch Fix contains salt-tolerant grass varieties which are resistant to future pet urine damage.
