Fertilization: Always fertilize and add lime or sulfur based on a soil test. Zoysiagrass will grow best at a pH of 6 to 6.5. If a soil test shows a higher pH, sulfur can be applied to lower it. Apply 5 pounds of pelletized sulfur per 1000 square feet of turf.
2 Μαρ 2024 · To maintain a healthy and lush zoysia lawn, it is best to fertilize it in late spring, once the grass has greened up and is actively growing. Applying a balanced slow-release fertilizer with a nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium (NPK) ratio tailored for zoysia grass is recommended.
Fertilization. Apply nutrients based on soil testing. In absence of a soil test, apply ⁄ pound of nitrogen per 1,000. square feet approximately three weeks after greenup. In the absence of a soil test, use a complete nitrogen-phosphorus, potassium (N-P-K) turf fertilizer with a 3-1-2 or 4-1-2 ratio (for example, 12-4-8 or 16-4-8).
Zoysia lawns are beautiful, but take extra attention to look their best. Zoysia can tolerate some shade, but not too deep and dark. These lawns need a good de-thatching in the spring and fall (to avoid diseases and pests) and they like a regular fertilizing schedule.
