    Hi
    I sat my lawn 2 months ago and i put some 18-6-12 fertilsiser on it about a month ago and i have cut it once, After i cut it it was very green looking and was looking well. Now however after the rain it has gone a light colour and is not growing. There are only a couple of patches of green in it. Could anyone recommend what i could do to get it to fill out and look a bit healthy?
    Cheers

    I'm no expert but as far as I know you're not supposed to use fertilizer on your lawn in summer so that might be what damaged it. You may have to redo it but first you could try throwing some seed on it and watering it well to see if that helps.

    You can put down 7617 - which is ok on new lawns - other stuff can burn it up
