Product Information

Lawn feed isn’t exactly food; it’s more a combination of mineral nutrients that help your grass to grow. Just like other plants, grass needs a regular supply of nutrients to keep it growing healthily. The main nutrients needed are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K), each of which provide your lawn with different benefits. Liquid feeds need to be diluted with water. They should be applied to the lawn using a watering can with a fine rose or a liquid-fertiliser spreader. Another variation of the rotary type is the handheld spreader. These are lightweight, low cost, and very easy to use, and if you only have a small space to cover, they can be a great tool to use. recently, there have been battery-operated handheld lawn feed spreaders coming onto the market, like the Einhell GE-US Power X-Change Lawn Feed Spreader , and when compared to the standard handheld spreaders, they take much less physical effort to use. You will have to pay extra for that privilege though. Variable controls Easy to set up and use, and with the handy little arm support feature that will please a lot of people after a long day’s reseeding or lawn feeding, the Greenkey Deluxe Seed and Fertiliser Spreader is another excellent option. Not a perfect product, as the spread controls aren’t the most accurate, but it is a low-cost model that does its job well.

You just can’t go wrong really – There’s no way you can justify the extra of the Scotts when you compare the price and how much you’ll use it, unless it’s for commercial purposes. Then read on to the Scotts lawn spreader as I compare and test them. Nitrogen, phosphorous pentoxide, soluble in neutral ammonium citrate, potassium oxide, iron sulphate Specification: Spreading width: 1.5-6 metres , Capacity: 18 liters , Recommended lawn area: up to around 800 m² , When to use: year-round use There are some of us who would prefer to use a rotary spreader but only have a small garden and are worried about getting unwanted chemicals in places we don’t want them. Even when walking at the slowest pace, the larger broadcast spreaders still distribute the contents of the hopper and some distance and it can be hard to control where it goes in a small or narrow yard. Specification: Spreading width: 5 metres , Capacity: 3.3 liters , Recommended lawn area: up to around 800 m² , When to use: year-round useOf course, the downside to any battery-powered tool is that the battery will eventually run out, but these days it is not as bad as it once was, with even the smallest 1.5Ah Li-ion batteries giving you a good couple of hours of usage on a single charge. Arriving almost fully assembled, you can have this lawn feed spreader out of the box and on your lawn in a matter of minutes.

No matter which type of lawn feed spreader you’re using, they are all very easy to operate. All you need to do is adjust the spread rate to suit your needs, then fill the container section up with your lawn feed and disperse it on the area that needs it. However, not all models use the same dispersing technique, and if you go to our Best lawn Feed Spreaders Buyer’s Guide, you’ll see how we compare rotary lawn feed spreaders with drop lawn feed spreaders. Types of lawn feed spreader The maximum spread width of The Handy lawn feed spreader is around 3.6 metres, so you could quite feasibly cover a good-sized lawn without it taking all day. This would mean keeping up the walking pace though, as you probably know. The Einhell spreader gives the user a lot of control over both the speed (6 settings) and spread volume (8 settings) and is a great time-saving tool for smaller gardens. Scotts have developed a high Nitrogen lawn food for spring/summer when grass growth is at its best. They also have a high Potassium autumn/winter food for strong root development to strengthen the lawn against the stresses of winter.If you’ve got a large area of grass to cover, it can wind up being pretty expensive to buy several bags of lawn feed. Fortunately, products like the GREENFORCE 4-in-1 Lawn Feed, Weed, Moss Killer offer great value for money, with one 15 kg bag providing enough to cover an area of up to 750 m² (that’s 3 tennis courts!). This is an excellent product for giving your lawn a boost of nitrogen when it needs it. However, I wouldn’t use it as my main fertiliser because the Nitrogen content is too high. However, if the health of your lawn needs a bit more help than just a bi-annual feed application, you will probably want to choose a product without weed-killing properties. You can apply Westland SafeLawn every three weeks between February and September, but it’s advised not to use during either a drought or when the ground is frosted over. This 5.25kg bag should provide 150m² of lawn coverage. Well, that’s what lawn feed can do. Of course, there are some products which are just lawn food, and some which will also deal with weeds and/or moss. It’s up to you to choose which is most appropriate for your situation. But whatever you go with, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed. Value for Money
