Lawn Care & Herbicide Spring Sale — Revive Your Lawn Before Summer

Lawn Care Herbicide Spring Sale South Africa — Weed, Feed, and Revive Before Summer

Spring is your one window to get ahead of lawn weeds and thin turf before the SA summer heat locks in. Our lawn care herbicide spring sale brings together selective weed killers, granular lawn fertilisers, organic soil feeds, and low-maintenance artificial grass options — all at sale prices for Heritage Day weekend. Whether you’re dealing with a broadleaf weed invasion, patchy winter turf, or a stoep that needs a permanent green solution, the GroPlus Spring Garden & Outdoor Sale has you covered.

Makhro Super Lawnweeder — Selective Herbicide for SA Lawn Weeds

Broadleaf weeds that survived winter germinate fast in spring — dandelion, clover, oxalis, and plantain can take over a lawn within weeks of the first warm spell. The Makhro Super Lawnweeder is a selective post-emergent herbicide that kills broadleaf weeds at the root without harming your LM, Kikuyu, Buffalo, or Cynodon turf grass.

  • Selective action — kills broadleaf weeds, leaves grass unharmed
  • Controls dandelion, clover, oxalis, plantain, and most common SA lawn weeds
  • Apply when weeds are actively growing — late August to mid-September is the ideal window
  • Do NOT apply in temperatures above 30°C or on drought-stressed lawn
  • Wait 4–6 weeks after application before overseeding or turfing
  • Do not use on newly established lawns under 3 months old

How to apply: Dilute as per label instructions and apply with the Makhro Pressure Sprayer 5L for even, controlled coverage across large lawn areas. The 5L yellow tank with blue lance and adjustable grey nozzle is purpose-built for herbicide and fertiliser application.

Makhro Lawn Care Super RTU — Ready-to-Use Broadleaf Weed Killer

For spot treatment of problem patches without mixing or measuring, the Makhro Lawn Care Super RTU 750ml is the fastest way to knock back isolated weed growth. Ready-to-use straight from the green trigger spray bottle — no dilution, no sprayer needed.

  • Ready-to-use selective herbicide — no mixing required
  • Green trigger spray bottle for direct, targeted application
  • Ideal for spot treatment of isolated weed patches
  • Controls broadleaf weeds in established lawns
  • 750ml — covers typical spot-treatment areas around the stoep and garden edges

Pro tip: Use Super Lawnweeder concentrate via pressure sprayer for full-lawn coverage, and keep the Lawn Care Super RTU on hand for any weed regrowth spots 2–4 weeks later.

Groei Power Lawn — Granular Fertiliser for Spring Lawn Recovery

After herbicide application and the 4–6 week waiting period, your lawn needs to thicken and recover before summer. The Groei Power Lawn Granular Fertiliser delivers a balanced 13-7-10 NPK that drives dense shoot growth, deep root development, and improved drought and heat resilience.

  • Balanced 13-7-10 NPK — N for shoot density, P for root depth, K for summer resilience
  • Slow-release granular format — no burning, even distribution, sustained nutrition
  • Covers ±250m² per 5kg bag at 20–40g/m²
  • Suitable for all SA lawn varieties — LM, Kikuyu, Buffalo, Cynodon, sports fields
  • Apply in morning or late afternoon, water in thoroughly after spreading

Timing: Apply Groei Power Lawn 4–6 weeks after Super Lawnweeder for maximum uptake into a weed-free, recovering lawn.
