The Proctors Autumn & Winter Lawn Feed is intended for use post-summer, to protect and nourish lawns, particularly as winter looms, whilst simultaneously helping kill and control moss. It’s a product that helps combat problems before they arise, or get worse, over winter. Maintaining a healthy lawn includes mowing, weeding, watering, and fertilizing. However, fertilizing isn’t always necessary. Overfertilizing a lawn will make the grass grow more vigorously, requiring users to mow more frequently or leading to runoff, which ends up in the local watershed. Make sure the lawn isn’t dried out and tired. Applying weed killer at this point could actually do more harm than good. Again, this will be your team of 1 star reviewers missing the correct plan. Ensure the lawn is not dry prior to spreading. Hopefully you’ll get a lovely steady bit of rain and you can time this, otherwise, you can use a garden sprinkler if you don’t have a hosepipe ban. I certainly hope not in May anyway!! To get this liquid weed and feed to do its job well, give it a few days at least since you’ve just your grass, and then once applied, give it a couple of days before you cut again. That’ll give the maximum chance of absorption. Weed and feed is effective for fortifying your grass and removing stubborn weeds like dandelions, crabgrass, clovers, and more. But long-term use could cause harmful effects on your grass. Use these products sparingly as needed, not as a long-term solution to weed problems. For that, look for a suitable weed killer. Q. How fast does weed and feed work?

Another problem you have to watch out for is fungi. Necrotic ring fungus is a hard infection to treat. It creates yellow rings in the lawn that can stay for three years. You’ll often have to turn up the soil, uproot the infected grass, and reseed the lawn. pound bag treats up to 10,000 square feet of lawn, and smaller bags are available for smaller lawns Unlike cheaper granular lawn feeds, this fertiliser comes in a homogeneous granular formulation – all the required nutrients are contained, and balanced, within each individual granule. As a result, no area ends up with a higher concentration of one particular nutrient, meaning it’s easier to treat the whole lawn evenly. But it’s not just crabgrass and dandelions. Preen shows satisfying results eliminating more than 250 types of broadleaf weeds on the lawn. This includes white clover, a notoriously difficult weed to manage once it takes root on your lawn.February is pretty quiet but March would be my first cut and scarify session. Don’t be scared of scarifying. If you have a super cool scarifier/aerator like the one linked in the guide here again for convenience, it’s no more effort than mowing the lawn… April/May You can easily expect effective results if you use any of these products on the list. They are slightly different from each other, but they will surely do an effective job in controlling weeds and improving your lawn health. 4. How do liquid weed and feed work?

Children and pets should be kept off the area until the granules have been watered in; a process that can be sped up by actively watering the garden instead of waiting for rainfall. However, to save water and time, this lawn feed can be applied when rain is imminent, allowing nature to take care of the after-care treatment. As well as encouraging new growth, this A1 Lawn Food also acts as a lawn tonic and will improve the overall quality of the grass. With the lawn cut take out your scarifier. I like to use a scarifier and lawn raker. My preference is the Bosch lawn raker and scarifier. Some prefer to go with a lawn scarifier and aerator in one. In that situation I would use the Einhell scarifier and aerator as it’s my favourite choice at the moment.
