When you think of getting your lawn ready for spring and summer, you probably think of mowing, watering, and maybe even reseeding. But have you ever considered fertilizing it? If so, you\u2019re not alone. So let\u2019s take a closer look at how lawn fertilization should be done \u2013 with the right fertilizer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What Is The Right Time To Fertilize?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don\u2019t have to fertilize your lawn every year. Instead, you should only fertilize when your lawn needs it most. Some indicators that your lawn may be due for a little extra TLC are when your lawn shows signs of soil depletion, you notice yellowing or browning leaves, and your lawn is growing more slowly than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your lawn shows any of these signs, it could be due for a fertilizer boost. You might also want to fertilize your lawn if you see signs of weeds starting to grow. Weeds typically grow in areas that aren\u2019t receiving enough sunlight, and fertilizing your lawn can help it grow faster in those shadier areas. If your lawn is covered with weeds, fertilizing can help to get rid of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why You Should Fertilize Your Lawn<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When your lawn is properly fertilized, it has everything it needs to grow quickly and vigorously. Fertilizer also helps your lawn to become greener, and not just because the grass will be growing faster. When your lawn is properly fertilized, the chlorophyll in its leaves also increases, making it more vibrant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those pests and weeds that you\u2019re trying to get rid of? They often carry diseases that can harm your lawn. By fertilizing your lawn, you can prevent many diseases by strengthening your lawn\u2019s immune system. Lastly, by preventing weeds from growing and preventing diseases, fertilizing also helps you to reduce your need for watering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Know Which Fertilizer Is Right For You<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to lawn fertilization, you\u2019ll first want to consider how much your lawn will need. Use this handy calculator to figure out how much fertilizer to use. You\u2019ll also want to consider how often you\u2019ll need to fertilize your lawn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, you\u2019ll want to look at your soil type. If your soil is nutrient-rich, you may not need fertilizer. If your soil is nutrient-poor, however, you\u2019ll probably need fertilizer to help your lawn grow well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll also want to take your lawn\u2019s pH into account. Different types of fertilizer work best at different pH levels. Finally, you\u2019ll want to consider the type of grass on your lawn. Some grasses need more nutrients than others, and some can even be harmed by fertilizers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
