Milorganite Slow-Release Nitrogen Fertilizer Slow-release fertilizers are the best fertilizers for grass because they gradually release nutrients into your soil instead of all at once.
The number one way to increase the green color in your lawn is with Nitrogen. Nitrogen is one of the big three macronutrients needed in the greatest quantities for healthy turf. It promotes top growth in the lawn by pushing the production of chlorophyll in the plant.
It helps promotes healthy growth, enhances foliage colour and protects your lawn from heat and drought stress. Seasol Lawn Care is ideal to use after mowing. It's a fast acting liquid, which goes to work immediately and is safe on all lawns including buffalo.

Slow release type fertilisers are great for the health of your turf, providing a slow consistent supply of nutrient, rather than one quick burst.
A good all-purpose fertilizer would be a 10-10-10 NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium). This type of fertilizer will work well for most plants and soil types.
You can't overdose on Seasol. It's not a Fertiliser. But it does have amazing healing qualities. One capful in a 10 litre watering can will treat around 4m2.
Do not apply Seasol and PowerFeed during the heat of the day. As PowerFeed is a fertiliser it may burn the foliage of the plant or lawn. If fungal problems are an issue, it is best to apply Seasol and PowerFeed in the morning to avoid moisture residue on the foliage overnight.
Seasol Lawn + Soil Booster is an example of an organic fertiliser that packs a lot in for your lawn and soil. It's a natural pelletised complete lawn health treatment with a rich source of seaweed and compost to boost soil health and lush, green growth in all lawns including buffalo.
If you would prefer an organic fertiliser for your lawn and garden or are looking for a way to improve the organic structure of your soil, then Dynamic Lifter is certainly a good option as part of a broader treatment program.
Keep a consistent watering schedule year-round to ensure grass always looks its best. But even if you've been neglecting your lawn, getting back into a watering routine will give you green grass fast. Water grass two to three times per week. Allow the water to soak about 1 inch deep into the ground.
Seasol and PowerFeed are liquids, they are readily absorbed into the soil and the plant foliage. Therefore you do not need to water them in. If you are treating your soil with Seasol Super Soil Wetter and Conditioner, please ensure that you do wash it off the foliage, to prevent burning.
Seasol is especially effective when used directly onto foliage as it's absorbed through the leaves. Seasol promotes healthy roots, encourages beneficial soil micro-organisms, stimulates flowering and fruiting and helps plants to cope with stresses like heat, drought, frost and pest and disease attack.
After mowing apply Seasol hose-on to strengthen leaf blades to reduce stress from heat and drought. Apply it early morning so the grass has time to dry before the onset of a cool night. For more details check out our video “How to Care for Lawns – Mowing & maintenance”.

The Big 3—nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium—provide the foundational nutrients of today's commercial fertilizers.
The fertilizer you choose should be based primarily on soil test results and plant needs, both in terms of nutrients and speed of delivery. Other factors to consider include soil and environmental health as well as your budget.
