Common Lawn Care Myths Debunked: West Sussex Edition

There’s no shortage of lawn advice online—but not all of it applies to gardens in Chichester or West Sussex. Let’s bust a few common myths:

Myth 1: You should water your lawn every day

False. Deep watering once or twice a week is far better.

Myth 2: Cutting the grass short means less mowing

False. Scalping stresses your lawn and invites weeds.

Myth 3: Moss means your lawn isn’t watered enough

False. Moss usually means poor drainage or compaction, not dryness.

Myth 4: You can fix a damaged lawn in one weekend

False. Healthy lawns take time, consistent care, and the right treatments.
