Lawn & garden fertilising
Fertiliser should respond to the plant, lawn and season rather than being applied automatically. Product choice and application scope are discussed before work begins.
What the work can achieve
- Nutrition matched more closely to the lawn or planting
- A clearer follow-up watering and maintenance plan
What can be included
- Visual review of the target lawn or garden area
- Discussion of suitable product options
- Application within label directions and the agreed scope
- Basic post-application care guidance
Important limits
- Fertiliser is not a substitute for diagnosing serious pests, diseases, drainage or soil problems
- Product use remains subject to label directions, weather and site conditions
Questions about fertilising
When should a lawn be fertilised?
Timing depends on lawn type, growth and weather. The lawn should be assessed rather than treated to a fixed calendar alone.
Will fertiliser repair every bare patch?
No. Bare areas can also result from shade, wear, compaction, watering or pests, so the likely cause should be considered first.
Do I need to water after fertilising?
That depends on the product. Any watering instruction will follow the label and will be explained as part of the job.
