Granular fertilisers are pellet-like dry granules that should be applied to the surface of the soil and watered over your grass. These pellets break down little by little to gradually release the nutrients into the soil.
These fertilisers offer constant nutrient release over time which can benefit the long-term health of your lawn. It means you won’t see instant results unlike what you can expect from liquid fertilisers.
However, patience is extremely important if you want to make your lawn better. These types of grass fertilisers are known for their long shelf life and easy storage.
Fast-acting and Liquid Fertilisers
Liquid fertilisers are a type of plant food in liquid form that allows easy application and quick absorption. These fertilisers might also be available in concentrated form. You need to mix them with water first before you apply them to your lawn.
Liquid fertilisers are a type of plant food in liquid form that allows easy application and quick absorption.
Among the biggest benefits of liquid fertilisers is the fact that these are fast-acting to offer immediate results. These are also excellent options for people who like to spot-treat certain parts of their lawn or apply fertiliser using a hose-end sprayer.
An easy way to distinguish between synthetic and organic fertilisers is that the organic ones focus on enhancing the quality of soil which can promote grass growth. On the other hand, synthetic fertilisers focus on producing green grass fast by directly feeding it.
Some of the best examples of the types of materials and ingredients found in organic fertilisers include alfalfa meal, bone meal, compost, corn gluten meal, egg shells, manure, kelp, and rock phosphate.
