Spring-Gem® is a fully water soluble foliar NPK fertiliser suitable for use on grassed areas such as fine turf, lawns, sports pitches and amenity areas. It can be sprayed on using a conventional nozzle and is compatible with some herbicides and moss killers. The combination of the 3 macronutrients within Spring-Gem® (Nitrogen, Phosphate and Potassium) helps plants and grass grow healthily and produces more crop yield. Each of the macronutrients have their own benefits; nitrogen aids with photosynthesis, phosphate helps plants convert other nutrients into usable building blocks with which to grow and potassium regulates CO² uptake during photosynthesis.
Foliar fertilisers are more readily available to the plant when compared to granular fertilisers as they are absorbed through the leaf tissue rather than the root system, therefore the effects of using a foliar fertiliser are seen much quicker.
We recommend using Spring-Gem from March-July when the grass is actively growing. Avoid spraying when ground is stressed due to frost or drought. Where possible, avoid spraying in bright sunlight as this could cause scorch to the grass.
