Our Lawn Fertilising Services
Lawn fertilising covers several key treatments that work together to improve soil quality, strengthen roots and enhance overall turf health. Here’s what’s typically involved:
- Granular Fertiliser Applications
These provide a slow, steady release of nutrients that feed the lawn over several weeks. By delivering essential elements gradually, granular fertilisers encourage consistent growth and reduce the risk of sudden nutrient imbalances. - Liquid Fertiliser Treatments
Liquid applications offer a quick nutrient boost that the grass can absorb almost immediately. They’re especially useful during periods of stress or when the lawn needs a fast recovery after heavy use or weather extremes. - Seasonal Timing Adjustments
Fertilising schedules are adjusted to match the growing season so the lawn receives nutrients when it needs them most. This ensures healthier growth in spring, stronger colour in summer and improved resilience leading into winter. - Weed & Soil Support
Alongside fertilisation, selective treatments help suppress weeds while soil conditioners improve structure and water retention. Together, these processes create the ideal foundation for long-term lawn health and consistent results.
Why Fertilising Matters
Fertilising plays a crucial role in how a lawn performs. Grass depends on a balanced supply of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium—each supporting growth, colour and root strength. Without this balance, lawns become patchy, pale and vulnerable to stress. Fertiliser applications also replenish nutrients that are naturally lost through mowing, rainfall and seasonal changes. Over time, consistent fertilising builds a denser turf canopy, which not only improves visual appeal but also acts as a natural barrier against weeds and soil erosion. By feeding the soil as much as the grass, fertilising strengthens the entire ecosystem your lawn depends on.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can over-fertilising damage my lawn?
Yes. Applying too much fertiliser at once can burn the grass blades and alter the soil’s nutrient balance. This stress weakens the turf, leaving it patchy and vulnerable to weeds and disease. A professional approach ensures the right products are applied evenly and at safe rates, protecting your lawn while still delivering the nutrients it needs.
Why does timing matter with fertilising?
Grass absorbs nutrients most effectively during periods of active growth, which in Salamander Bay usually aligns with spring and early summer. Fertilising too early or too late can result in wasted nutrients that leach away or fail to support growth. By fertilising at the right time, the lawn uses the nutrients fully to strengthen both roots and leaves. Correct timing also means your lawn maintains its colour, density and resilience across the seasons.
How does fertilising help during dry periods?
Fertiliser encourages lawns to develop deeper root systems, which allows grass to reach moisture further below the surface. A well-fed lawn retains its green colour longer during dry spells and can recover more quickly once rainfall returns. By improving the plant’s structure, fertiliser reduces stress and leaf damage caused by heat. Over time, these treatments help your lawn stay thicker and healthier even through harsh summer conditions.
