The last days of summer are the ideal time to fertilize your lawn.

Every summer resident probably wants the grass on his country plot to retain its beautiful appearance for as long as possible.

Unfortunately, with the onset of cold weather, the condition of herbaceous plants can deteriorate significantly.

Dangerous consequences can be avoided by using certain fertilizers.

So, at the end of August the lawn needs phosphorus and potassium.

How to fertilize your lawn before autumn

During this period, superphosphate and potassium sulfate will have a positive effect on the condition of the grass.

As for the first product, 40-60 grams will be enough for one square meter.

But the consumption of the second fertilizer should be 25-30 grams per 1 m2.

Having received the necessary substances and microelements, the grass will remain in a normal state for quite a long time and retain a bright green color.

In addition, herbaceous plants will be prepared for serious temperature changes and will acquire protection against many diseases.

The summer resident can be sure that the lawn will cope with frosts and then “overwinter” normally.
