But it doesn't look like much.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot dead. Not patchy. Just dull. A washed-out, thin green that looks average no matter what you put on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat's a colour problem, not a growth problem. And growth products — including most fertilisers — can't fix it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard nitrogen fertilisers produce colour as a side effect of pushing growth. More leaf, more chlorophyll, reads as green. But it's a shallow green. It fades in 10 days, requires constant reapplication, and comes with the side effect of excessive mowing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVivid fixes this differently. Chelated iron drives colour at a cellular level, independently of growth. Darker, richer, more sustained green that standard nitrogen fertilisers physically cannot produce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA premium nitrogen and chelated iron foliar formula, scientifically developed for residential turf colour enhancement. The chelated iron drives deep green colour independently of nitrogen — delivering colour depth that standard fertilisers can't match. The nitrogen supports healthy leaf function without pushing the rapid, soft growth that most fertilisers produce. Rich, sustained colour that holds for weeks per application, not days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication rate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e200 to 400ml per 100m2. Mix into 5L of water. Apply evenly across the leaf surface. Leave on the leaf for 1 to 2 hours before watering in. Apply early morning or late afternoon when temperatures exceed 30 degrees. Can be mixed with Surge in the same tank pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRate guide:\u003cbr\u003e\n200ml — regular colour maintenance\u003cbr\u003e\n400ml — deeper colour enhancement or winter colour recovery\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply every 3 to 4 weeks through the growing season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1L covers 250 to 500m2 depending on rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat to expect\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDays 3 to 5: First signs of colour deepening — particularly noticeable in lawns that have been dull or washed out.\u003cbr\u003e\nDays 5 to 7: Rich, deep green colour established across the lawn.\u003cbr\u003e\nWeeks 2 to 4: Sustained colour maintained per application — noticeably more consistent and deeper than standard fertiliser green-up.\u003cbr\u003e\nWith consistent use: Cumulative improvement in overall lawn appearance that compounds over a season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Vivid produces colour standard fertilisers can't\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard nitrogen fertilisers push growth as the mechanism for colour. More leaf means more chlorophyll, which reads as green — but it's shallow and fades quickly. Vivid uses chelated iron alongside nitrogen to drive colour at a deeper level. Iron is directly involved in chlorophyll production and produces a darker, richer, more sustained green without depending on rapid leaf growth to get there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's also why Vivid is the go-to product for winter colour maintenance. When growth slows in cooler months, standard fertilisers stop working. Vivid keeps the colour going because it's not relying on growth to produce it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComplete the program\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVivid works harder when paired with the full two-layer approach.

Vivid enhances colour without the aggressive growth push of straight nitrogen fertilisers. Darker, richer green without adding to your mowing schedule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Vivid good for winter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Growth slows significantly in cooler months but colour doesn't have to suffer. Vivid is the primary product in the Turf \u0026amp; Surf winter maintenance program — particularly for lawns that want to hold colour through the cooler season without pushing vulnerable soft growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I mix Vivid with Surge?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Surge and Vivid are designed to be applied together as the leaf layer. Surge drives growth and recovery. Vivid drives depth of colour. One sprayer run covers both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMy lawn is pale and thin, will Vivid fix it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nVivid will improve colour significantly. But if the lawn is thin and pale rather than just lacking colour depth, there's likely a soil or root issue underneath that needs addressing first. Soak, Vital, and Surge as the foundation layer will make Vivid perform dramatically better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this work on my turf type?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Works across buffalo, kikuyu, couch, and zoysia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does one bottle last?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAt 200 to 400ml per 100m2, a 1L bottle covers 250 to 500m2 — a full season of monthly applications at the maintenance rate for a standard suburban lawn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it safe for kids and pets?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Safe once dried after application and watered in, typically within a couple of hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca title=\"Read SDS Sheet\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0942\/0550\/9934\/files\/Turf_and_Surf_Vivid_SDS_Nov21.pdf?v=1758604179\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eREAD SDS SHEET\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/pages\/5-step-lawn-program\"\u003eView the complete 12-month Turf \u0026amp; Surf program guide →\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turf \u0026 Surf","offers":[{"title":"1 Litre","offer_id":50652556525870,"sku":"TS VIVID 1L","price":58.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0942\/0550\/9934\/files\/T_S-Vivid-_01.jpg?v=1754286731","url":"https:\/\/turfandsurf.com.au\/products\/vivid-deep-green-lawn-enhancer","provider":"Turf \u0026 Surf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
