In late spring and early summer, grass pollen becomes important. It usually rises in May and lasts through July. Many common grasses release pollen then, including meadow grass and rye grass. Warm, dry, windy days can spread grass pollen far across town.
In summer, weed pollen can appear after the grass season. It is often strongest from June to August. Plants like nettle, plantain, and docks release pollen during this time. Some weeds grow near roads, gardens, and empty lots around Urmston.
In late summer and early autumn, pollen levels can drop, but some plants still release pollen. Mugwort is one example. It often flowers in August and September. By October, most tree, grass, and weed pollen has faded, and the pollen season is nearly over.
