In early spring, from March to April, tree pollen starts to rise in Otterburn. Birch, alder, hazel, and willow are some of the first trees to release pollen. Wind carries these tiny grains through the cool air as new leaves begin to grow.

Late spring, from May to June, brings a stronger mix of pollen. Grass is the main source then, and it spreads across fields, roadsides, and gardens. Ryegrass and timothy grass are common plants that release lots of pollen in this time.

In summer, from June to August, grass pollen can stay in the air for many weeks. Warm, dry days often help it travel farther. In some places, weeds also add pollen, including dock and nettle plants, especially near open ground and edges of paths.

In late summer and early autumn, from August to September, weed pollen becomes more important. Plants like mugwort and nettle release their pollen then. By October, pollen levels usually drop as cooler weather arrives and most plants stop flowering for the year.
