Is your lawn looking tired no matter how much water you give it? It may be missing vital nutrients that promote thick green growth and healthy root systems. Lawn fertilization can provide your landscape in St. Petersburg with the nutrition it requires to finally achieve its full potential.
At Lawn Doctor of Pinellas Park – St. Petersburg, we know lawn fertilization can be confusing. After all, proper fertilization requires an in-depth understanding of grass types and climate patterns. When you leave this process in the hands of our expert team members, you can count on enjoying all the advantages of a healthy, beautiful lawn without the headache of trying to figure out what it needs on your own.
Answering Your Lawn Fertilization Questions
If you have questions about fertilization, you’re not alone. Many of our clients are unsure exactly how fertilizer works or when it is best applied. We’ll fill you in on all the details, so you can develop a better understanding of why the health of your turf has been floundering for all this time.
Below, you can find answers to some of the questions that may be on your mind.
- How often is fertilization required? As a rule of thumb, your lawn should be fertilized in early spring, late spring, summer, and autumn. You’ll note winter is not included on this list. That’s because fertilizer is best applied when grass is actively growing, not when it’s dormant.
- What kinds of nutrients does fertilizer contain? Fertilizer formulas are typically packed with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Nitrogen is responsible for the green color of healthy grass, while phosphorous stimulates root growth and potassium increases overall resilience.
- Is there anything I can do to increase the effectiveness of a fertilizer treatment? Mowing, raking, or aerating before fertilization can remove excess lawn waste and help the nutrients in the fertilizer more easily reach the soil.
