Titchmarsh revealed that he uses a handy weed grubber.
The broadcaster said that his tidiness on the lawn was “confined to weekly mowing and fortnightly edging in spring and summer”.
Highlighting the key timings, he also told of what fertiliser is best to use.
But he cautioned to use it only at the correct times.
He explained: “I feed with the ubiquitous blood, fish and bone in April and again in June, and extract any large rosettes of plantain or dandelion with a daisy grubber.”
The Wilkinson Sword Stainless Steel Weed Grubber can be bought for under £7.

One shopper who bought the grubber branded it a “brilliant little tool”.
They said: “This works well for smaller weeds, and does not remove too much of your lawn!”
Another said: “Perfect for weeding my strawberry patch and great value for money.”
They recommended the product and rated it five stars.
