A Simple Guide to Fertilising your Lawn
If you’ve purchased our garden turf then you’ll want to make sure you maintain it to keep it looking sharp for as long as possible. We all know how important it is to water the grass during warm periods throughout the year, but if you want to go a step further to create and maintain a strong, fresh looking lawn to be proud of, fertiliser might just be the answer.
Laying your New Lawn
There is no better time to fertilise than when laying your new lawn. Using a pre-turfing fertiliser before the turf is laid can go a long way to giving your new lawn a strong and healthy future. Sprinkle the fertiliser onto the soil whilst following the correct information detailed on the packet to achieve the correct spread.
Fertilising your Lawn
If you did not fertilise prior to laying your new lawn, fear not, you can still achieve a very healthy lawn by keeping it well fed throughout the year. A well fed and watered lawn will look greener and healthier for much longer throughout the year.
When Should you Fertilise your Lawn?
Spring Lawn Fertilisation
Spring represents growth and this is no different for your grass. After surviving the winter, your grass will be keen to get growing again and if you follow the correct procedures, you’ll have that lush green grass back in no time. A great time to apply the first feed/ fertiliser to your lawn is around the same time that you are planning to mow it.
Summer Lawn Fertilisation
Summer can be a very testing time for grass as the hot temperatures can easily cause lawns up and down the country to turn from green to brown. By fertilising your lawn during the summer you will give it a fighting chance to remain as strong as possible.
Autumn Lawn Fertilisation
Throughout Autumn your lawn is still growing. It is important to fertilise/ feed your lawn in Autumn to prepare it for the stress it will experience throughout the coming winter months.
Winter Lawn Fertilisation
Winter marks the end of the growing cycle for your lawn and the rate at which it grows will naturally slow down. There is no need to fertilise during the winter, general maintenance can still be carried out however, it’s now about looking towards the next cutting season.
