Q.
My lawn was looking very lush before the heavy down pours of rain we have been experiencing. Is it time to fertilise and rejuvenate or not.

- Wait until early August before fertilising and rejuvenating your lawn.
- In winter lawns aren't actively growing because the soil temperature is too cold, and so the grass won't take up the nutrients, it will just wash away.
- In about another months time temperatures should start to warm up and frosts have hopefully disappeared.
- In early spring, to rejuvenate your lawn, apply Tui LawnForce New Lawns fertiliser it contains a slow release source of nitrogen that stimulates growth and soil microbial activity, as well as encouraging healthy root growth.
- Strong healthy roots will tolerate summer extremes such as drought.
- In late October, early November feed your lawn with Tui LawnForce All Purpose fertiliser for a lush green lawn.
