Choosing the best lawn fertiliser will depend on the current state of your lawn, as well as what your grass needs. We’ve put together the following information so you’ll have a better idea of what to look out for: Phosphorous is integral for general plant health; if plants aren’t healthy, they will grow slowly and take a long time to mature. Naturally, this will also make them weaker.

Fertiliser comes in either liquid or granular form. When it comes to the best winter lawn fertiliser, granular fertiliser is best. One thing to note: if there’s no rain forecast, you’ll need to make sure to fully water in the fertiliser yourself. It takes a while, and a fair amount of water, for the granules to dissolve.If spilt on paving or concrete, brush off immediately to avoid discolouration. If no rain falls within 48 hours of treatment, irrigate treated area. One 12.6 kg bag covers approximately 360 m² (when applied at a rate of 35 g/m²), which is plenty of product for most standard gardens (if you’d like a more accurate reference – 360 m² is about the same size as twenty parking spaces!). A high nitrogen content is less important for winter fertiliser. However, grass still requires some nitrogen for promoting normal functions and it is not always present in the soil in high amounts – this is why most winter fertilisers still contain a reasonable amount of nitrogen. If you’re hoping to find a fertiliser that will be useful year-round, you will want a slightly higher ratio of nitrogen compared to if you’re using a separate fertiliser for winter and spring (recommended). Do not apply in windy conditions. Keep of skin and away from eyes. Avoid walking on treated areas until it has rained or product has been watered in.

Mark out areas to be treated. Apply evenly at 32 grams per square metre over the marked area by hand. It is good practice to wear gloves when using this product although this is not a requirement. According to Substral, the slow-release granules stay active for approximately 100 days, meaning they are constantly adding nutrients to the soil. Not all fertilisers contain phosphorous, as too much phosphorous in the soil can actually build up and have a negative impact on the environment and plants. If your soil has a phosphorous deficiency, your grass will require a fertiliser with phosphorous. If not, you may want to avoid adding too much.Large or perennial weeds may re-grow. Persistent weeds may require repeated treatments once new growth appears. Mark out areas to be treated. Apply evenly at 50 grams per square metre over the marked area. It is good practice to wear gloves when using this product although it is not a requirement. The fertiliser consists of relatively fine granules, so it can be a case of trial-and-error to make sure that they are applied at the recommended amount of 35 g/m². If you are using a spreader that is intended for larger granules, you will need to reduce the aperture accordingly. Also, similarly to phosphorous, it helps plants grow a strong, extensive root system – very important for helping grass to endure the harsh conditions of winter. Water – Water lightly 1-2 times daily (preferably in the evening) for 3-4 weeks – avoid watering when it rains.
