07 Dec Quick Lawn Green-up
I have guests coming over to our place this time next week for the girl’s 1st birthday party (where did this last year go?) so I’m keen to give the front lawn a bit of last minute green-up. To do this I am going to apply Yates Lawn Master Rapid Greening Lawn Food which is a quick-acting solution that will show results within two days! It comes in a 500ml click-on hose dispenser that covers 75m2
It should be noted that this is not a complete lawn food, comprising only of nitrogen, potassium and iron rather than the complete range of nutrients found in regular lawn foods. It is however, these fast acting forms of iron and nitrogen that will provide the quick-greening effect on the lawn I am looking for. Subsequent feeding in later weeks with a complete lawn food will make sure it doesn’t go wanting of other essential elements.
