Hi Matt,
It is possible to get spring and summer feed that will last for up to three months, allowing a quarterly feed as mentioned. Many in professional lawn care will use a spring/summer feed with around 20% Nitrogen which is a lot higher than that of Evergreen. Professional products can also include trace elements, organic materials, biostimulants etc depending on the service you want to provide. They generally tend not to be "4 in 1" treatments as these are not always cost effective and generally you will get better results from feeding and weed treating separately anyway.
Hi Matt,
There is a massive choice of brands but also types of fertiliser - slow release, controlled release, standard release, etc - then you get into prill size, liquid vs. granule, etc..
Its probably best to sum up your average customer and how often you will attend site. A customer who just wants a single visit will have very different expectations from a customer who has you in every fortnight/ month.
Happy to talk through the options as we have a good range to suit most requirements and can always get specific analysis made to order at normal rates...

If your friends work for a lawn treatment company don't they get supplied the right products?
Evergreen is a domestic product, so wouldn't be legal to use for commercial purposes, would it?
If anyone is interested in buying Evergreen fertilizer... I usually use it...... Just found that Amazon do a really good deal at the moment with free delivery. Its £18 for a large bag which treats 400 square metres and there's a 4 for the price of 3 deal on it so each bag works out at about £13.50. Beats the recommended price of £24.99.
I pay a little over £18 for a bag which will cover 750sqm. I have used some of the evergreen stuff before and its ok, but no where near as predictable as Everris or others I have used.
