For smaller gardens, this Vitax Green Up Liquid Lawn Feed works well to ‘green up’ the lawn whilst eliminating smaller weeds. Due to fineness of granules, can be hard to see where already applied - need to be careful to avoid double application. The Scotts Lawn Builder Lawn Food starts to revitalise the lawn in around seven days, then continues slowly releasing nutrients for eight weeks. Cutting high encourages grass plants to grow thicker with deeper roots, which creates a lawn of healthy grass that will help to crowd out weeds.

Cool-season grasses, such as Kentucky bluegrass and tall fescue, grow best in cooler temperatures and are common in northern regions of the United States. Due to its diluted nature, it may not necessarily be as strong as granulated products can be, but it’s less likely to scorch the grass and is simpler to apply. If using a Scotts® drop spreader to apply this lawn fertilizer, align the hopper wheel with the tracks from the previous pass and continue across the lawn at a steady pace.They should be applied to the lawn using a watering can with a fine rose or a liquid-fertiliser spreader. I like the liquid better than the granules as I have more control over the application and where it goes. The best time to apply Scotts Turf Builder depends on the type of grass you have, the climate you live in, and the time of year.

Two months later, give it a second feeding, this time with Scotts® Turf Builder® Southern Lawn Food. The feed has a blue colour and may stain skin if it comes into contact - consider using with gloves.Designed to be used when planting new grass, this product prevents dandelion and crabgrass for up to 6 weeks without harming new grass, jumpstarts grass development so it establishes thicker and quicker, and feeds to protect against heat and drought. It's important to note that Scotts® Turf Builder® Triple Action Built For Seeding does not contain seed. It’s important to follow the instructions on the Scotts Turf Builder packaging to ensure that you’re applying the correct amount of fertilizer and at the right time. Be sure to sweep all granules off paths, coping, paving, driveways, shoes, etc immediately after use.
