FAQ
How do I choose the right fertiliser for my lawn?
The best fertiliser depends on your turf variety, soil condition, and the time of year. For example, buffalo and couch grasses often thrive with balanced fertilisers containing nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Starter fertilisers are ideal for new turf, while mature lawns may benefit from slow-release formulas. It's also important to consider local climate — North Queensland’s warm weather means your turf may need more support during dry or high-growth periods.
When is the best time to apply fertiliser to turf?
In North Queensland, it’s best to fertilise your lawn in early spring, mid-summer, and autumn. These periods help strengthen your turf during growth seasons and prepare it for changing weather. Avoid fertilising during very hot or dry spells unless you can water thoroughly. Morning or late afternoon is ideal to prevent heat stress and give nutrients time to absorb into the soil.
Is fertiliser really necessary for turf maintenance?
Yes, fertiliser plays a key role in keeping turf strong, green, and resistant to stress. Without regular feeding, lawns can thin out, become patchy, and struggle to recover from heavy foot traffic or dry weather. Fertiliser boosts root development, encourages lush growth, and supports long-term turf health. If you want your lawn to look great year-round, a consistent fertilising routine is essential.
