Fertilising:

• For optimum growth apply a high Nitrogen Lawn Food in September.
• Remove thatch each spring in mid to late November and follow this with an application of Lawn Food and a deep irrigation.
• Topdress with sand or loamy soil to achieve a level surface.
• In summer the use of wetting agents will keep the turf green and reduce the incidence of dry patches.
• In March apply Lawn Food to aid root and rhizome production prior to winter dormancy. This will hasten the spring green-up process.

Weed control:

If weeds appear it is best to remove them by hand if possible as chemicals can discolour or kill the grass. Specific products that are safe to use on your Eureka lawn are available at our Anco stores.

Regular mowing improves the quality and look of Kikuyu. It should not be left longer than 35mm, as thatching and scalping tendencies will increase. The ideal mowing height is 20-25mm. It can be mown shorter (15mm)

if mown regularly in spring and summer. Less frequent mowing is required in autumn and winter.
