Why Choose a Kikuyu Lawn?
Kikuyu is vigorous and will survive where other lawn seed types would struggle, or need a lot of maintenance. If your lawn is close to the coast, it makes a lot of sense.

Yates Lawnmaster Slow Release Lawn Food is a professional grade, slow release lawn fertiliser designed to give you a strong, green and healthy lawn. Each fine granule releases an equal level of nutrients so you achieve a consistent result and avoid surge growth and burning while minimising nutrient runoff and leaching.
Features
- One application feeds continuously for 12 weeks, giving you a thicker lawn that resists weed invasion and has a deeper root system
- Rapid visible results, improved colour
- Together with slow release nitrogen minimises risk of nutrient loss into the environment
Directions for use
When to apply
Apply any time of year, during periods of active growth. For best results, we recommend application in early spring, early summer and early autumn.
Application rate
Apply at a rate of 18g/m2. Note: One adult handful contains approximately 50g.
How to apply
Calculate lawn size and required amount of Yates Lawnmaster Slow Release Lawn Food. For hand application, apply to lawn evenly at the recommended rate. Using a sweeping arc motion, spread half the amount required walking in a north-south direction, and the remainder in an east-west direction. To cover large areas use a lawn fertiliser spreader.
Yates Lawnmaster Slow Release Lawn Food does not need to be watered in immediately when applied to dry foliage. Ideally, apply before forecast rainfall, or water in well to activate the product.
Handy tips
Mow lawn before application. Do not mow until granules have been thoroughly watered in. During summer, if feeding a cool climate lawn such as bent or fescue, use half the recommended rate.
