It also prepares the lawn very nicely for the next growing season, springtime.
I use my handy Drop Spreader to sprinkle the granular fertiliser over the lawn.
An autumn granular feed contains everything your lawn grass requires right now, correctly proportioned nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, iron and magnesium for an autumn application.
These nutrients will keep the lawn grass healthy over autumn and wintertime when the days are short, damp and cold.
The Drop Spreader on its two wheels is ideal for applying equal amounts of granular feed up and down the lawn.
A Drop Spreader will have a range of settings, with this one I tend to use setting four or five to achieve the right amount of application whilst doing a gentle walk up and down the lawn.
Once the granules have been spread over the lawn they will settle and dissolve into the ground, this is when the nutrients are released and soaked up by the grass roots.
The grass will benefit from the nutrients in a matter of days and become stronger, healthier and greener for it.
A healthier lawn is a disease free lawn, so it’s time to get spreading that granular feed.
