How much fertiliser should you apply on a lawn?

It depends on the product you require for your garden, but the fertiliser application rate generally is 2 - 3 kgs per 100 sqm. However, liquid fertilisers for lawn applications are generally watered down at a ratio of 200-400 ml in 1.5 - 5L water per 100m2 of ground coverage and for gardens 100 ml per 10L water.

Is lawn fertiliser safe for dogs?

Fertilisers typically contain vital nutrients for plant growth, but some synthetic nutrients could be toxic if ingested in large quantities for dogs. Fertilisers with chemicals and synthetic ingredients can be at risk and unsafe for your dog. Always read the packaging or discuss it with the supplier if you’re unsure.

Types of lawn fertiliser

There are a few types of lawn fertiliser available in New Zealand each with its own unique traits and characteristics.

Lawn fertiliser

All-purpose fertiliser is a great product for small gardens and offers a dual purpose of providing nutrients to grass and other plant beddings. Another option is a booster, a slow-release option for more established gardens.

Liquid lawn fertiliser

Liquid fertiliser is a next-generation product that enhances natural lawn health without the interference of chemicals. Beneficial for all grass and garden situations.

Weed and feed lawn fertilisers

This is put together with slow-release fertiliser pills to provide long-term feeding for your grass. It contains a blend of nutrients required to establish a new or patch an existing lawn.

The advantages of high-quality lawn fertilisers

To enjoy a healthy garden, you require high soil quality, and the best way to do that is to use good quality fertiliser. Gradually soil naturally loses essential nutrients that are required to survive. Fertilisers replenish and replace the essentials your grass needs to remain healthy. High-quality options are designed to do this with New Zealand conditions in mind. They have been tried and tested for optimal results and come from experienced suppliers who can give you great tips and recommendations on how best to use these products. They can also give great advice about other related products like lawn soil.

How to choose lawn fertilisers that are right for you

When deciding which lawn fertiliser to use it’s important to understand exactly what the different types are made for. All-purpose lawn fertilisers are an effective way to minimise maintenance and prevent pest damage and disease. Weed and feed lawn fertilisers are beneficial if you want a time-release option that progressively feeds your garden. Liquid fertilisers are an effective way to add nutrients to your grassroots. After picking a type, you’ll also need to buy the right amount of product so you’ll need to take or know the measurements of the area to work this out. Each product has slightly different concentrations so this will need to be checked on the label. Apart from this, so long as you have selected a high-quality product from a reputable supplier you’ll be right on track to getting a healthy and beautiful lawn.
