Fertilising lawns made easy

Regularly mowing the lawn and removing the cuttings ensures that nutrients are continuously drawn from the soil. Immediately after mowing, the grass actually needs plenty of nitrogen, phosphate, potassium, magnesium, iron and trace elements to grow. Otherwise the green colour will fade and less grass will grow again. You can make up for this with balanced fertilisation. If you use a mulching mower, your lawn needs less fertiliser as the cuttings that remain on the surface decompose over time and the nutrients contained in them are re-used.

To ensure a permanently healthy lawn, it is important that you regularly add nutrients to it throughout the year. You should fertilise for the first time in the spring. It is best to use one of our slow-release fertilisers which will provide your green carpet with all the important nutrients for up to six months. What is so special about them? The nutrients are released as needed depending on weather conditions (temperature and humidity). The controlled release of nitrogen means that our lawn fertilisers also preserve the ground water. If you opt for a product with a shorter release, you should fertilise again in the summer. The lawn gets its final supply of nutrients in the autumn. Use a special autumn lawn fertiliser with a high potassium content. This strengthens the grass and makes it hardier and more durable.
