Description

Super Smart Lawn Feed Feeds up to 100sqm Super Smart contains three naturally occurring ingredients: Bacteria to feed your lawn Micronutrients to make the grass grow green Mycorrhizae to increase the roots.Beneficial bacteria specifically, Azospirillum, attach themselves to the roots of the grass and fix nitrogen from the atmosphere. The bacteria also excrete plant hormones, cytokinin and vitamins. The benefit is that Nitrogen is fixed right next to the plant root where it is needed most. Weeds are not fed and leaching is minimal. Mycorrhizae can increase the root system by up to 150 times. In a lawn the close proximity of other grass plants eventually means they all become connected through the mycorrhizal network sharing water and nutrients for a healthier lawn. The mycorrhizae in Super Smart is soluble and can be applied to new, existing and establishing lawns and watered in by rain/hosepipe. Most mycorrhizae products have to be applied to bare soil so are only used for new sowings. Seaweed extract ensures the availability of micronutrients and gives a gentle and natural green up to the grass plants. Many lawn fertilisers use iron to achieve this effect which over the long term has a detrimental effect on the soil.
