Though this sounds too good to be true, gardening expert Jack Skilling revealed his method for getting your garden back in full bloom.

Better known as The Lawn Pack on Tiktok, he even shared his best tips and showed fans how he totally transformed his garden.

Rather treating these with weed killer, the gardener decided to remove the weeds with a rake - in a process known as scarifying.

Not only will this improve the look of your lawn, it allow more air, water and light to reach the grass and improve it’s over all health.

In the short video, he explained: “We started by scarifying the lawn this removes any excess thatch and allows the lawn to breathe.”

This wasn’t the only hack Jack had though, with the Tiktok star applying granular seeding fertilizer to the lackluster lawn.

Unlike other forms of fertilizer, which can cost upwards over £30 for a large bag, this alternative can be relatively cheap with Amazon selling a 2.5kg tub for just £13.

After giving the lawn a much need health boost, the content creator was then able to add some seed to cover any patches.

Whilst you can pick this up at most gardening centre or DIY stores, Jack emphasised the importance of getting the right seed mix for your garden.

With his garden being slighter drier than usual and ‘being used by pets’, Jack needed a high quality seed mix made from a durable grass variety.

He told his followers: “We applied an appropriate high quality seed mix which in this case all for the dry grass to ensure it was resilient.”

In addition to this, he also applied a rather unusual ingredient to get his garden summer ready: liquid seaweed.

Though you might be used to having seaweed with your takeway, the humble plant is actually packed with plant-loving phosphates, nitrogen and potassium.

“[It] is an organic bio-stimulant and will help root development,” Jack revealed, adding that there was one final hack to get garden looking lush.

Instead of waiting for the odd downpour, the expert recommends giving your lawn a water every day for four weeks to ensure it’s in peak condition.
