If you're at a loss of how to transform your dried out or patchy lawn, adding one product is said to help.
And despite the season, this gardening buy is now cheaper than ever.
A 1.2 kilogram bag of Speedy Seed Lush Lawn Seed & Feed is available for £2.99, reduced from £7.99.
According to manufacturers, this item helps to "transform your garden".
The seed blend helps to "repair and nourish" your soil to allow for a "thicker healthier lawn".
The product description reported that this buy gives you "lush results in just seven to 10 days".
And don't worry if you think you're too late to use the seed as it is "perfect for sowing from spring to autumn".
The "unique blend of grass seed and grass feed" guarantees "lush even results".
Add to soft moist soil in a warm environment for ideal seed growth.
Before opening the box, shake it for about 30 seconds to ensure the special blend is combined together.
Alan Titchmarsh's 'easiest' tip will fix bald patches on your lawn in two minutes flat this spring & no it's not seeding
And for the best results when sowing grass seed, make sure to aerate your lawn beforehand.
This involves pushing solid spikes into the ground, creating small holes for the seeds.
When aerating, it is recommended to work in straight lines, as overlapping passes ensures complete coverage.
This process works best when the soil is moist but not completely wet.
Experts recommended watering your lawn in advance as it softens the soil.
Home Bargains also has a budget-friendly buy that helps your knees while tending to your flower beds.
The budget retailer is also selling a budget buy guaranteed to brighten up your space.
Another garden light from the store is described as having a "cute" twist.
And shoppers can also pick up a £9.99 novelty decor buy that adds character to flowerbeds.
A £7 gardening gadget is also available from Home Bargains and is guaranteed to transform your lawn.
Home Bargains shoppers can choose from a variety of 20 plants available for as little as £2.99.

Paul Hollywood's sausage plait recipe
'I grew up with sausage rolls in my dad's bakery and they're still probably my all-time number one food,' says celebrity chef Paul Hollywood. 'This elaborate plaited version is a great way to show off your pastry skills. 'The sausage meat is flavoured with roasted peppers, fennel seeds and chilli flakes, but you can leave out these extras and just use your favourite sausages – it'll still taste amazing.' Advertisement Sausage plait Ingredients (Serves 10) 1 quantity puff pastry (homemade or 500g good-quality ready-made) Plain flour, to dust For the filling: 1tbsp olive oil 1 onion, finely diced 2 garlic cloves, crushed or grated 2tsp fennel seeds ½tsp dried chilli flakes 2 x 400g packs of good-quality sausages 450g jar roasted peppers To finish: 1 medium egg, beaten, to glaze A small handful of poppy seeds (Haarala Hamilton/PA) Method 1. For the filling, heat the olive oil in a small frying pan, add the onion and cook over a medium-low heat for 7–10 minutes until softened. Add the garlic, fennel seeds and chilli flakes and sauté for another minute. Transfer to a medium bowl and leave to cool. Advertisement 2. Peel away the skins from the sausages and then add the sausage meat to the cooled onion mix. Mix well with your hand until the ingredients are thoroughly combined. 3. Heat your oven to 220°C/200°C Fan/Gas 7. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. 4. Drain the peppers, cut them lengthways to open them up and pat dry on kitchen paper. 5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to a 35 x 40cm rectangle. Arrange half of the roasted peppers down the centre of the pastry. Now form the sausage mix into a log that will cover the centre third of the pastry. Lay the sausage log on top of the peppers and then arrange the remaining peppers on top. Advertisement 6. Using a small knife, make diagonal cuts in the pastry down either side of the sausage filling, spacing them 1.5–2cm apart. Fold the strips in over the filling alternately to create a plait and seal the ends. 7. Brush the pastry with beaten egg and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake the plait in the oven for 35–45 minutes until crisp and piping hot. Leave to stand for 10 minutes before slicing. It is delicious hot or cold.
