Product instructions: Turbogreen autumn fertilizer

Before you start fertilizing, the lawn grasses should be dry and the lawn mowed.

Our tip: Aerate the lawn before fertilizing! The best way to apply the fertilizer is with a centrifugal spreader, e.g. with our Turbospreader at level 5 or with a spreader wagon.

To fill in the fertilizer, it is best to place the spreader outside the lawn. Please weigh out the required quantity before filling the spreader and observe the dosage (20 g/m²).

The more experienced among you can also spread the fertilizer by hand. Please wear gloves to avoid direct skin contact with the fertilizer. Always spread the fertilizer evenly! For optimum spreading results, run half of the specified dosage over the lawn lengthwise and half crosswise. To avoid over-fertilization, do not allow the spreading paths to overlap. It is best to fertilize directly before an expected downpour or water the lawn extensively after fertilizing with 10-15 l/m²;

We recommend the Turbogreen autumn lawn fertilizer twice, once in mid-September and once at the end of October or beginning of November, depending on the weather. As an alternative to the second autumn fertilization with Turbogreen Autumn Lawn Fertilizer, you can also use our Turbogreen Stressmanager

Autumn fertilization is very important because the Turbogreen autumn lawn fertilizer contains a lot of potassium, which makes the lawn robust and resistant to the cold in winter. The cell walls are strengthened and the potassium also protects against fungal diseases. Without autumn fertilization, the lawn will not get through the winter well and will therefore not get off to a good start in the spring;

When fertilizing, the soil temperature should still be a constant 8 °Celsius. You can use a meat thermometer, for example, to measure the soil temperature. Just because there are a few cooler days in the fall does not mean that the soil temperature is already below 8 °Celsius and therefore unsuitable, as the soil retains heat quite well.
