Liquid Lawn Fertilizer for NZ Lawns
Hello, and welcome! There’s nothing that says ‘home’ quite like a thick, lush green lawn. It’s the perfect playground, a beautiful backdrop for a summer barbecue, and it's a joy to look at. I've spent a lifetime in the nursery business, and I can tell you that a great lawn is the result of proper care and a good feed.
The Liquid Fertiliser Advantage
When it comes to feeding your lawn, you have a choice between granular fertilisers and liquid feeds. Granular fertilisers can be effective, but they can be slow to break down. I have always found that liquid fertilisers are a fantastic choice because the nutrients are in a soluble form, meaning the grass can absorb them immediately for a fast, visible result.
Liquid feeds are particularly effective for correcting nutrient deficiencies and for giving your lawn a rapid greening boost when it's looking a bit tired or stressed.
My recommendation is to use LiquidGold™ Dual-Mix Super Feed. Its comprehensive formula contains all the essential nutrients your lawn needs, including Nitrogen for thick, rich, green growth and Potassium for overall plant health. It also contains
Iron Chelate, which gives your lawn that deep, dark green colour everyone loves.
When and How to Fertilise Your Lawn
For a healthy lawn year-round, I recommend a regular feeding schedule in spring and autumn. These are the times when your lawn is actively growing and can best absorb the nutrients. I’ve found that a liquid feed is a great way to deliver these nutrients quickly and efficiently.
It's also important to apply the fertiliser correctly to get the best results. I always recommend applying a liquid feed to dry foliage, and it's a good idea to irrigate it within 24 hours to help the nutrients move into the soil.
How to Use LiquidGold™ Dual-Mix Super Feed on your lawn:
- Mix PART A and PART B from one sachet into 10L of water.
- Apply the solution with a watering can or hose-on sprayer to ensure an even application. I recommend applying it a minimum of six hours after mowing and avoiding mowing for at least 24 hours after application.
FAQ: How to Grow a Great Lawn
What is the best way to water my lawn?
Consistent watering is the key to a healthy lawn, especially during the dry summer months. The guiding principle is to water deeply and less often to encourage a deep root system. In dry conditions, you may need to water your lawn 2-3 times a week, but always check the soil to ensure it's not waterlogged.
My lawn has some sparse patches. How can I thicken it up?
A regular feeding schedule with a complete fertiliser is a great way to thicken up your lawn. LiquidGold™ Dual-Mix Super Feed provides a full range of nutrients to promote healthy growth and a strong root system, which will help fill in those sparse patches.
