The first and probably the most important thing to know is that you can damage your turf by using too much lawn fertilizer too quickly, this can cause a multitude of problems including causing your grass to be very weak which is not a good outcome.

We suggest using a fertilizer once just before the spring season has started, this will give it the best possible chance of growing strong and thick grass as spring time is the well known growing part of the year.

Then you should use your fertilizer once every two months depending on the variety of lawn fertilizer you are using, always read the fertilizers manufactures information before commencing fertilizing.

This will help to keep the lawn looking beautiful and healthy during the coming months, providing you stick to the manufactures advice and information you should not have any problems.

There are manufactures around that produce what they call a slow release lawn fertilizer, this sort can be very handy if you are the person who is very busy or someone who tends to forget about fertilizing.

This is only applied once and will last for months keeping your turf looking healthy and full of nutrients, again read the manufactures instructions before applying it.

The one thing that will keep your turf looking good is having a strict watering regime, you should try to water your turf once a day if possible in the summer months where the soil can dry out.

This will keep your turf looking vibrant and in good condition, for your turf to stay strong and healthy it is important to stick to this watering regime as much as possible.

When looking after your lawn you might come across the problem of garden weeds encroaching in to the grass, one way of dealing with this problem is by using a different version lawn fertilizer.

This type of new fertilizer has been developed to kill the weeds and not harm any of the grasses or soil, and at the same time still giving you great coverage of needed fertilization.

Although this fertilizer can be one of the more expensive products, it is well worth the extra expense to get rid of the weeds from ones lawn and provide you with great lawn turf all in one go.

So think of these two things before you buy your fertilizer, does your lawns turf have a weed problem, will you remember to fertilize your garden once every two months.

I suppose the safe way of ensuring you have a great looking lawn is to go buy a lawn fertilizer that you have to apply only once, and make sure it is the product that gets rid of the weeds from the lawn at the same time.

This will work out to be the more expensive option but this sort of lawn fertilizer will give you that green vibrant looking lawn you want, and then all you have to do is remember to water the lawn on a regular basis.
