Why fertilise your lawn?

A lawn requires more than just oxygen and water; it needs nourishment in the form of lawn fertilisers. By providing your lawn with fertiliser, you enhance the soil, combat weeds, and stimulate grass growth. You’ll notice that your lawn becomes healthier and stronger, significantly improving its appearance throughout the year.

How much lawn fertiliser do you need?

The required amount of lawn food depends on the instructions on the packaging. Manufacturers provide detailed guidelines, such as the recommended amount per square meter. Evenly spreading the fertiliser over the lawn is common, with variations based on the type of fertiliser, composition, season, and lawn condition. Read the instructions on the packaging carefully for accurate information.

What to consider when buying lawn fertiliser?

If you want to buy grass feed, there are several essential points to consider.

Composition

Check the composition of the fertilisers and select based on the specific needs of your lawn, such as restoration work or general care.

Season and needs

Choose based on the season and the specific needs of your lawn. Whether it’s repairing damaged grass or general care, select fertilisers that fit your lawn’s situation.

Packaging

Ensure that the packaging is well-sealed to maintain quality and prevent mould formation.

How long does lawn fertiliser keep for?

The shelf life of lawn fertiliser can vary depending on the type of fertiliser and its specific formulation. Here are some general guidelines:

Synthetic Fertilisers:

In sealed and well-closed packaging, synthetic fertilisers can last for several years. Store them in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture absorption.

Organic Fertilisers:

Organic fertilisers typically have a shorter shelf life than synthetic fertilisers. Organic fertilisers may clump or lose effectiveness if they absorb moisture.

Liquid Fertilisers:

Liquid fertilisers usually have a longer shelf life. Store liquid fertilisers in a cool place, protected from direct sunlight.

Always consult the product information on the packaging for specific details about the shelf life of the lawn fertiliser you are using.

When and how to fertilise the lawn?

Fertilise your lawn approximately 3 to 4 times a year: in spring, early summer, possibly late summer, and finally, in autumn. In spring, give your grass a boost after winter, keep it beautiful during dry periods with summer fertilisation, and prepare it for winter with autumn fertilisation.

Use different types of lawn fertilisers with varying NPK ratios for each season to prevent brown spots. For fertilising your lawn, you can use a hand spreader or broadcast spreader for even distribution. First, spread in vertical and then in horizontal stripes to ensure you don’t miss any areas. If your lawn is dry, spray immediately after spreading for optimal absorption, and if rain is expected, fertilise a few hours before the anticipated shower.
