Don’s Tips: Lawns Now

Lawns

Normally, the advice for right now is to fertilise lawns with a high nitrogen fertiliser to get one last green flush of growth.

In my opinion that would be a mistake this year.  With the strange weather patterns over the last 6 months or more, using a high nitrogen fertiliser now on lawns could lead to dreadful lawn diseases breaking out.

Fungal leaf diseases in particular will be rampant.

So … Instead of the usual lawn foods, I recommend using Thrive Flower and Fruit.  This has a more balanced formula containing potassium that helps to fend off diseases.

I know that this sounds weird but do use Thrive Soluble Flower and Fruit plant food for your lawns right now.  Dilute it in a watering can and sprinkle it over the lawns.

Good luck.

Hooroo!
