What are the benefits of the nutrients included in GMX Iron Plus Fertiliser;
- Iron (Fe) – Iron helps turf grasses stay deep green during the hot summer without increasing growth. Iron helps the plant move oxygen throughout the roots, leaves, and other parts of the plant, producing a green colour indicating the plant is strong and healthy. Iron is one of the most useful tools in maintaining turfgrass colour without enhancing excessive growth. As a dissociated or dissolved ion, iron will enter the turf via the leaf or root system and form a carrier compound (Ferredoxin) essential in forming Chlorophyll. The application of Iron will force turf to produce Chlorophyll in excess, thus giving the green-up required. Iron is also essential for producing other enzymes involved in oxidation and reduction reactions. While the colour effect from Iron applications is sought after, the physiological role and resulting turf health because of Iron are equally important. While Iron is the driving force in colour development, the presence of Magnesium and Nitrogen is vital to the completion of the greening effect. Magnesium and Nitrogen will form the central structure of the chlorophyll cell. Hence, turf green-up will not occur as readily without the Magnesium or Nitrogen.
- Nitrogen (N) – Nitrogen promotes healthy leaf growth by encouraging chlorophyll production, a chemical vital to photosynthesis. Nitrogen helps form proteins that the cells within the grass need to grow. Nitrogen is important for colour and appearance, turf density, tolerance to wear and traffic and root development.
- Magnesium (Mg) – Magnesium promotes winter hardiness and early growth. Low magnesium turf may have yellow, wilting patches and drooping leaves. Magnesium’s key roles for turfgrass include chlorophyll synthesis, photosynthesis & energy production, nutrient uptake and utilisation, protein synthesis & metabolism and stress tolerance.

Have used iron on my lawn before and it worked a treat but it was expensive for the amount you get. The 10 litre bottle is a great size and works exactly the same with the same result but much cheaper
