Professional Lawn Fertilization 101: What to Know First
As professional lawn fertilization experts in the White Marsh area, we get many of the same questions time and again. Below are a few to help you learn more about our treatments. If you have a different question, we encourage you to call our team.
Should I mow and rake before you fertilize?
Yes, this improves the effectiveness of the treatment. Soil is more exposed, so fertilizer has an easier time reaching the ground and getting absorbed.
Should I aerate before Lawn Doctor of Collegeville-Upper Providence-Upper Merion fertilizes or after?
Timing aeration ahead of a fertilizer treatment will give your lawn a big boost. The aeration process cuts out small soil plugs from your lawn, exposing the soil. This leads to better absorption of nutrients, improving the effectiveness of the fertilizer treatment.
Should I water my lawn before or after you fertilize?
Both. Watering a few days beforehand is a good idea since it will soften and hydrate the soil, helping more fertilizer get absorbed. Many fertilizer products recommend immediate watering after to activate the process. However, your technician will explain next steps once they’re done treating your lawn.
How long should kids and pets stay off my lawn?
Allow it to rain or water your lawn, then wait an additional 24 hours.
Why is fertilizing important?
Fertilizing your lawn gives it a nutritional boost, so the root system is healthier, blades are thicker and greener, and your lawn has heightened natural defenses. This means it will more easily ward off issues with diseases, weeds, pests, and other common problems. It will also have improved tolerance to heat, cold, and other stressors.
