Soil, Climate & Fertility Requirements For Zenith Zoysia
Zoysia grass performs best under neutral to slightly acid pH conditions. Zoysia grass seed should be planted in late spring or early summer when nights are warm and daytime
temperatures are consistently over 75 deg F (24 deg C) - a warm soil temperature over 70 deg F will produce the best results.
Do not plant zoysia seed after mid to-late summer. Approximately four weeks after seeding apply a complete, balanced fertilizer to the newly established turf area. For faster
coverage during the establishment year, a rate of 1 1/2 pounds of nitrogen per 1,000 square feet is recommended every month during the growing season. After the first year, a light
fertilizer application after spring green-up and one in late summer should suffice to keep the zoysia turf healthy.
