We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

Is it better to fertilize before or after rain?

Make the last fertilizer application before July 1. New growth also needs time to harden off before winter. Tender new growth is at risk of cold injury if it is forced late in the season, when plants and trees should be shutting down for winter.

Which season is best for fertilizer?

Autumn is essential for fertilizing because it helps prepare plants for winter and ensures a strong start in the spring. During this time, plants benefit from nutrients that support root growth and overall resilience.

What time do you apply fertilizer?

Always follow the manufacturers recommended rates and application methods. Fertilize outdoor plants in the coolest part of the day, such as early morning or late evening, especially in hot summer weather. Always water in fertilizers well to distribute nutrients throughout the soil profile and to prevent burning.

What month should I apply fertilizer?

The best time to fertilize your lawn after the summer season is typically in the early fall, around late August to early September. During this period, grass is in its active growth phase, and the cooler temperatures promote root development and nutrient absorption.

Can I just sprinkle fertilizer on top of soil?

Ideally, you want to apply fertilizer treatments to your lawn after it rains. However, youll want to wait for the puddles on your lawn to sink into the soil and the grass blades to dry. Its also a good idea to fertilize your grass if it is sunny for a few days after it rains.

What is the best time to fertilize?

The best time to apply fertilizer to a lawn is in spring, after the soil has warmed to around 55 degrees. Fertilizing during the cold months is a waste of fertilizer and while you can certainly put fertilizer on a lawn in the summer it wont be as effective as applying in the spring.

When should you apply fertiliser?

In general, best fertiliser results are achieved by feeding three times a year early spring, early summer (before it gets too hot) and mid to late autumn. If you are going to only fertilise once a year, do it in late spring to early summer.
