Product Information

You also need to consider if the fertiliser you are using is safe around your pets and animals as it could influence your fertilising schedule. Although the applications of our grass seed vary massively, grass seed is best sown in late summer and early to mid-autumn, although can be grown earlier in the spring and summer months. There are a few reasons why grass seed performs so well during late summer and autumn months, the soil is warm, there is less competition from weeds and the soil is at its warmest - assisting the germination and growth of the seed. Many fertilisers work on a slow release basis, however these do vary from one fertiliser to another. Some gardeners may prefer to fertilise only once during the growing season in spring, using a very slow release fertiliser. However, this is not always the best option. It is recommended that you fertilise your lawn around 4 times per year, as mentioned above, as this gives you a greater control over the amount of nutrients delivered to your lawn according to its health and weather conditions. The only products that will cause staining on hard surfaces are Green-up Ferrous Sulphate and Winter Green Fertiliser. All of our other fertilisers are safe on hard surfaces and will not cause staining.

ADDED NUTRIENTS - The added iron helps to ‘green up’ your lawn. The magnesium makes photosynthesis more efficient, turning more sunlight to energy & making the grass more green and lush. The seaweed adds essential minerals & breaks down the soil which helps to release more nutrient content.It is beneficial when using iron or liquid products to leave the box off for the first cut after application if your mower instructions allow. Spring Lawn Feed

A balanced blend of N:P:K nutrients is ideal for during the cooler, spring weather for grass plants to utilise.The 9-7-7 Everris ICL Sportsmaster fertiliser is ideal for treating grass throughout spring and summer. 9-7-7 Sportsmaster is suitable for treating any grassed area from sports fields to fine lawns. A fast acting blended fertiliser, 9-7-7 Sportsmaster will help you gain a healthy, lush and vigorous lawn. Having a healthy lawn enables it to withstand many lawn issues, such as weeds, moss growth, disease and drought. You can expect the nutrients to be released slowly over a 6 week period which avoids any rapid top growth and repeated mowing. Apply by hand or through a spreader in mid-season on areas subject to intense use. Finally, because liquid feeds are taken up by the leaves of the grass you are best spraying mature grasses (at least 3 months old preferably 6 months) that are in good condition i.e. plenty of soil moisture and NOT straight after scarifying.

There are two types of lawn fertilisers to choose from. Organic fertilisers are more costly but have many advantages over the alternatives. Even though on every bag of fertiliser you’ll find a recommended application rate, I think it’s best not to use it, instead I would use half. To prevent over applying and for better lawn coverage, spread the fertiliser in one direction (in straight lines) using half and then spread the second half going in another direction, at a perpendicular angle (90°).

If you can’t tell then take a small sample of soil from your garden. If you think the soil in your lawn is different from the rest of the garden then use a spade to lift a small area of lawn turf and take a golf ball size bit of soil from about 2” down. One of the most popular fertilisers to use is weed and feed as it helps to eradicate the weeds in your lawn at the same time as fertilising the grass. This saves time and money on buying selective lawn weedkiller and then lawn fertiliser separately.In addition to this Lawn Sand should be used in Spring and Summer months which helps to promote luch, green turf and if it's a wet summer it will control moss at the same time. If the winter we have experienced has been cold and dry but still with a good amount of light then damage to the turf will be considerably less than if the winter is a wet and cloudy one due to the damage that would be caused from low light conditions and excess water from rainfall. It is not ideal as the first or last feed of the year due to its limited range of nutrients but is excellent from late spring to early autumn. Use a granular feed to start and finish the lawn year.
