putting a bag of 0-7-30 on the lawn?

f140 · 2013-04-01 20:32:30

my lawn is looking a little yellow and was thinking of spreading a bit of 0-7-30 on it by hand and hope that it might give it a nice green colour without having to cut it any extra?

I put 10/10/20 on lawn every spring really gives it a good boost and has banished all signs of moss. I make sure to put in all beds aswell

De sister-in-law had a house in Dublin where they lived for a while around the time they got married and for a couple of years afterwards. They got on well with the next door neighbour and the neighbours knew she was a farmers daughter. The neighbour was plaguing the brother-in-law to get him some fert for the lawn from "the farm". The tightner was too mean to get his own. The brother-in-law asked me what he should get to ensure he wasn't being plagued again. I told him to get around 10kgs of urea, there was hardly 150sq/m of lawn to be done. That boy was cutting lawns very 2 days for the months of May and June that year and he never asked about lawn fert again:D.

used it last year on dairygold advice, seemed to do a good job alright for greening without growth.

have a lot of moss after the winter and have done the sulphate of iron thing. now comes the raking, but I need to promote a bit of growth to fill the patches. Think I'm gonna do a bag of granlime and maybe try out the 7/6/17+S as suggested in the other thread.
