Lawns go dormant through winter - like hybernating bears...
We’ve been talking fertiliser for a good reason over the past few weeks – it’s almost winter! Okay, some may say the glass is still half full being that we’re only half-way through Autumn, but there’s no slowing it down: winter is fast approaching.
So, what happens now and what should you do? Today we’ll recap that crucial information for you and your lawn!
In winter, our Aussie lawns will go dormant. For the healthiest lawn throughout winter, as well as promoting the quickest recovery time after it, we need to ensure our lawns are in their peak condition before they enter this phase. Fertilising is critical to getting your lawn dormancy-ready.
So we've packaged up our information neatly for you here:
What is fertiliser? Fertiliser is material that is applied to soils or plants to provide nutrients for growth and health. Find our more here: What is Fertiliser?
Organic natural mineral vs chemical fertiliser – what’s the difference? There are many differences between fertilisers, including the material they’re made of. Find out more and discover which one is right for you here: Difference: Organic Natural Mineral VS Inorganic Fertiliser.
What is Soil pH and why does it matter? Acidity vs alkalinity – just like in high school chemistry. “Soils ain’t soils” either so find out what it all means and what you should know for the best health of your plants here: What is pH in Soil?
