Fertilizer is essential for a great lawn. Plants, like people, cannot do without nutrition. The fertilizer application plan should be based on soil analysis data and the specific needs of the lawn grass. Remember that various elements are leached from the soil during the year or consumed by the plants. The type and amount of fertilizer depends on various aspects: types and varieties of grass (grass mixtures), the purpose of the lawn (golf, landscape, football, rugby ...), soil structure, organic matter content (%). When sowing, for better development of seedlings, fertilizers are applied after germination, and when first sowing, fertilizers are applied before sowing. Fertilizer application contributes to better rooting and a richer appearance.
