Product Instructions: Lawn Lime

Turbogrün Lawn Lime helps regulate the soil's pH level and creates optimal conditions for healthy lawn growth. To ensure the lime is fully effective, there are a few things you should keep in mind when applying it.


Preparation: Check the pH level

Before liming, we recommend determining the soil's pH level.

  • Over-the-counter self-tests are available

  • An even more accurate option is a professional soil analysis conducted in a lab, which you can also request from us

That way, you'll know exactly whether liming is necessary and, if so, how much to use.


The Right Time to Apply Lime

The best time to apply it is in the spring and fall. However, Turbogrün lawn lime can be applied year-round.


How to Use Turbogrün Lawn Lime

  • Mow the lawn beforehand

  • Grass should be dry

  • Weigh the required amount before filling

Dosage:

  • Standard: 100 g/m²

  • Or the amount determined by the soil test results

It is not possible to overdose on our lawn lime.

Application rate:

  • Evenly with a centrifugal spreader or the Turbo spreader (setting 5)

  • Experienced users can also apply the lime by hand
    → Walk across the lawn once lengthwise and once crosswise, using half the recommended amount each time

After liming:

  • The best time to apply it is before a forecast rain shower

  • Alternatively, thoroughly water the lawn afterward with 10–15 l/m²


Benefits of Turbogrün Lawn Lime

  • Made from 100% drinking water

  • finely granulated and therefore dust-free

  • sinks deep into the turf

  • doesn't smudge

  • contains magnesium and boron

  • Carbonated lawn lime to promote soil fertility

  • The pH does not rise above 7


Waiting period between applying lawn lime and other products

Turbogrün Lawn Lime can be easily combined with other products:

  • No waiting period is required after applying fertilizer or performing other maintenance tasks

  • Lime can be applied immediately before or after fertilizing

However, it is best to apply the lime a few weeks before fertilizing. This allows the soil’s pH level to stabilize, enabling the lawn to better absorb the nutrients from the fertilizer afterward. However, this is not absolutely necessary.
