Frequently Asked Questions About Lawn Fertilization in Birmingham
Because of the many intricacies and moving parts involved in fertilizing local lawns, it’s common for local homeowners to have questions about the process. Here’s a closer look at a few of the common questions we get regarding the fertilization process and our answers to give you some insight to how we get the most out of our treatments and bring you top-notch results:
Can I apply fertilizer to a wet lawn? You can apply most fertilizers to your yard whether it’s wet or dry, but there are some types of fertilizer that have specific requirements. For example, many fertilizers that have built-in weed control need to be applied to a wet lawn to get the best results possible. If you’re applying fertilizer yourself, the best bet is to follow the directions for watering given on the bag.
Should I aerate my yard before or after fertilization? If you’re going to aerate your yard around fertilization, it’s best to do it before fertilization. Aerating your lawn prior to fertilization treatments will boost circulation in the soil and make it easier for the nutrients supplied by fertilization to penetrate and nourish your lawn. With our core aeration equipment, we provide more effective aeration than with common DIY tools.
