Rapid Roots - Pre-Seeding/Turfing Feed (2kg)

What’s makes the Harrowden Rapid Roots Pre-Seeding/Turfing Feed so special?

• Magnesium oxide within the turf feed aids the rate of chlorophyll, which results in a beautiful green lawn.


• Nitrogen to promote leaf growth.


• Phosphorus in order to build strong, healthy and clean roots.


• Potassium to prevent lawn disease as well as increasing the roots water absorption rate.


• Humates and Trace Elements to increase nutrient retention, which results in fewer nutrients to be washed away.


• Seaweed to stimulate bacteria within the soil which will release more nutrients to your soil.


• All these minerals and nutrients encourage grass seed germination; the time it takes for grass to grow.

Harrowden’s Rapid Roots Pre-Seeding/Turfing Feed helps to build strong root growth and faster establishment for either freshly laid turf, or as pre-seed preparation. We recommend distributing the fertiliser over prepared soil prior to laying new turf or before sowing grass seeds. This will ensure that the fresh lawn is healthy, green and grown fast.

The turf feed can be applied all year round, however, for best results we recommend avoiding application during heat waves and droughts.

Using Rapid Roots To Reduce The Time It Takes For Grass Seeds To Grow

Our Pre-Seeding/Turfing Feed contains nitrogen, this is used in order to increase and promote leaf growth. The magnesium oxide aids the lawns to give a gorgeous, green colour. The phosphorous and iron encourages healthy, disease-free and strong roots. We have developed Harrowden Turf Rapid Roots with ingredients to improve the plants' nutrient retention. This increases the effectiveness of the fertiliser. Finally, we add seaweed to stimulate the soil bacteria, which overall increases fertility.

Rapid Roots Encourages A Healthier Lawn After Turfing

If you're using our pre-seeding and turfing feed as a pre-turfing fertiliser, we recommend that you apply to the soil with the following measurements - 20 grams per square metre, then work the granules into the first 20-30mm of the soil with a rake. Once the turf is laid on top, it is important that the soil is well watered. We recommend the fertiliser is reapplied onto the established lawn six weeks after laying, this will provide the grass with sufficient nutrients for the first six months.
