Product Information

You an also buy liquid weed killers, such as Fluroxypyr, Clopyralid which won’t necessarily feed the lawn but will kill the weeds without harming the grass. Why it helps lawns When to feed a lawn is not just a question of the season, climate, or temperature. The best time to feed a lawn also depends on the right conditions. Let’s take a closer look at what these are. Soil moisture

Apply the fertiliser evenly across the lawn, ideally in cool, moist conditions when rain is expected, or lightly water it in afterwards Southern grass species prefer wetter conditions and plenty of fertilizer. You can use Scotts Triple Action for Southern Lawns to take care of your Bahia, Bermuda, St Augustine, and centipede varieties of grass. The Best Weed and Feed Formula for Bermuda grass Regular watering at seven or eight day intervals during dry periods is essential to maintain vigour in the turf Rake then mow your lawn regularly to keep creeping weeds at bay, such as speedwells, clover, silverweed and sorrels Whether you're struggling to control moss, weeds or both, there's a lawn treatment that can help, but they don't all do an excellent job. Some will work wonders for your grass (but not make a dent in the weeds and moss), while others do a better job at controlling weeds.

What Is Weed and Feed and What Types Are There?

It’s a product that helps preserve the natural appearance of the lawn, for those gardeners who like having daisies and clover poking through as well. Miracle-Gro EverGreen improves the health of the grass but doesn’t contain any weed killing properties. When the grass is in ‘grow-mode’ and the soil is moist, then you’re good to go. If it hasn't rained for a while (apparently that does happen in the UK, occasionally), you should water your lawn a few days before you fertilise just in case it’s suffering from drought stress. These weeds will be shallow rooting and you can pull them out by hand, or wait until the 6–8-week mark to mow them out So today, we’ll teach you all about when to apply weed and feed and how to do it properly. What Is Weed and Feed and What Types Are There? Don’t rush to apply. Let the grass tell you when which is generally when you start mowing regularly. Quite often in late winter or very early spring, you notice the grass finally starting to grow and so you give it a cut. It may be another 3 to 4 weeks before you mow again because it’s still cool and growth is slow. Once you get into a rhythm of regular mowing at least every 7-10 days (perhaps the fourth cut of spring) then is the time to feed. Summer Lawn Feed

Children and pets should be kept off the area until the granules have been watered in; a process that can be sped up by actively watering the garden instead of waiting for rainfall. However, to save water and time, this lawn feed can be applied when rain is imminent, allowing nature to take care of the after-care treatment. Choose a specific spring/summer lawn fertiliser and apply it at the manufacturer’s recommended rate in mid-spring, while the lawn is green and actively growing (usually late March/April). These feeds are high in nitrogen, to boost leafy growth, and usually release their nutrients slowly over several monthsThis last point is referred to by Miracle-Gro as their ‘WaterSmart’ formula – it encourages the absorption of water and nutrients into the grass which can help protect it from drought and general stresses resulting from poor conditions.
