With the arrival of spring, the increase in temperatures and daylight hours, we are about to prepare the lawn for the summer season.

Below we will see the 10 + 1 products that must not be missing for a perfect turf.

10 - Fertilization with a high potassium content

The first thing to do is a cut, avoiding removing more than a third of the leaf. Subsequently, you can proceed with a slight rolling and drilling of the soil and immediately afterwards it would be an excellent action to use a liquid soil conditioner based on humic and fulvic acids mixed with mycorrhizal fungi. This combined with a surfactant and light irrigation:

The expert's recommended products for turf maintenance in spring:

1. Humic acids

BLACKJACK BIO or VIGOR LIQUID

2. Mycorrhiza

MYCO POWER or MEBOV FR

3. Surfactants

H2FLO or WATER PLUS

In case of moss, specific products such as Mosskade or less specific products such as Solfer Cifo can be used. After about a week, you can proceed with a light aeration of the turf. This agronomic practice is very important to remove the oldest basal leaves and lift any surface layers of undecomposed plant residues, formed during the winter (false felt).

5. Starter

It is always a good idea to use a starter fertilizer in conjunction with a reseeding, with a high phosphorus content, to help the growth of new roots:

LANDSCAPER PRO NEW GRASS

6. Potting Soil

and cover the seeds with a specific soil for lawns:

HUMIPRATI POTTING SOIL

7. Fertilization

If the lawn does not need to be reseeded, immediately after aeration, fertilization can be done with a specific product based on Calcium and Magnesium in a maximum dose of 10/15 gr per square meter, in order to begin to "wake up" the turf and help the lawn to better overcome the stress deriving from the aeration done previously:

The expert's recommended products:

Nova Plus CalMag + TE

8. Organic fertilization

Subsequently, organic fertilization can be carried out to increase the fertility of the soil.

The expert's recommended products:

A granular organic can be used:

PRODIGY PLUS BIOGARD

N.B. - it is important to administer an organic fertilizer also together with mineral fertilizers, or at least 4 times a year. This is because organic fertilizer improves soil fertility and also increases the assimilation of elements.

9. Mineral fertilization

When the turf begins to grow steadily and the temperatures have stabilized definitively, you can proceed with a mineral fertilizer with slow release or scheduled release:

The expert's recommended products:

10. Fertilization with a high potassium content

It is very important in the period from the end of April - May (or even the end of September - October) to administer a fertilizer with a high potassium content that will thicken the cell walls, improving resistance to stress due to hot (or cold) temperatures.

Stress control 15.0.25+ 4 MgO - Summer k 10.0.30

preferably using a fertilizer spreader, to avoid the risk of accumulation of fertilizer and therefore possible burns:

10 + 1. Antagonistic fungi

In this period we can also administer any bacteria, antagonistic fungi (trichodherma) and in general all those compounds that work mainly in the rhizosphere, combined with biostimulants, which help the turf from any sudden return of cold:
