Frequently Asked Questions About Our Lawn Fertilization in Middletown
We frequently get questions regarding fertilization simply because it can be a confusing process. Below, we’ll take a look at some common questions we get and their answers to give you a closer look at some of the specifics when it comes to effective lawn fertilization, here they are:
Can I apply fertilizers to a wet lawn? Whether your yard is wet or not doesn’t have too much of an effect on fertilizers, unless there’s a sudden downpour. Some weed-and-feed fertilizer products actually require you to water your yard before application to get the desired results. For the best results, simply follow the directions on the bag.
How soon after seeding a new lawn should I fertilize it? Fertilizing your yard directly after applying seed or sod will provide it with the nutrients it needs for successful germination and growth. A mix of slow and quick-release fertilizers will give your new grass a nutrient boost and sustain growth over time.
How do I read fertilizer labels? If you’re not completely sure what to look for on a fertilizer, it can be tricky to read. To get the information you need as quickly as possible, simply check which grass type the fertilizer is designed for and the values on the NPK label. This ratio will tell you whether a fertilizer is designed for a specific purpose or it’s for general lawn health.
