Need a slow release fertilizer for grass...
#3
Do you have a reasonable amount of dirt below the grass? If so, I would recommend something like blood meal or feather meal, which will put a lot of nitrogen into the ground, which becomes "slow release" in the sense that the worms and other critters living in the ground take a while to convert the blood meal or feather meal into a nitrogen form that can be taken up by the grass roots.

If you don't have much dirt, however, I would worry that the blood meal or feather meal would just leach through.

Generally, I am a big proponent of "feed the soil" as opposed to "feed the plant" - but here in Hawaii, there is the major caveat that there actually be soil. ;-)
