A lush and vividly green lawn can make an impactful statement. However, keeping your lawn healthy can be a challenging task. Whether your grass is dull and discolored or scarcely growing, specialized treatment can revive your yard and transform the look of your yard. Lawn care fertilization is one of the most effective ways to revitalize your property, and with the experts at Grasshoppers, the process can be quick and simple!

What is Fertilizer Made Of?

There are dozens of different fertilizers to choose from, and people mainly pick a formula based on the type of grass they are looking to fertilize. However, most basic fertilizers contain varying amounts of iron, potassium, phosphorus, and nitrogen. These four fertilizer ingredients offer several benefits to plants, such as:

• Stimulating growth
• Accelerating maturation
• Increasing hardiness 
• Fending off disease
• Promoting stronger roots
• Enhancing blooms

Calculating and Scheduling Fertilizer Treatments

Lawn fertilization may seem like a straightforward process, but there are several things to keep in mind when applying a treatment. Here are some of the most important things to consider when planning a lawn fertilizer treatment:

• Which type of fertilizer is best for your lawn. Different fertilizer formulas contain different ratios of the four key nutrients that your lawn needs. Factors such as weather patterns, time of year, and the type of grass in your lawn can all determine which formula is best for you.
• How much fertilizer your lawn needs. Too much fertilizer can cause unsightly burn spots all over your lawn, while too little can inhibit results. That’s why it’s important to determine which formula is right for your lawn, and exactly how much you should use.
• When to fertilize your lawn. Knowing when to fertilize grass is one of the most important parts of scheduling your treatments. Generally, we recommend applying treatments during growing seasons rather than dormant months. In Florida, the growing season for grass usually begins in March or April and lasts until September or October.
• Timing and weather patterns. Unfortunately, fertilization is not a one-and-done procedure – on the contrary, it’s recommended to fertilize at least six times per year. Timing these treatments correctly can help you see optimal results. Additionally, the time of year and weather patterns may alter which formulas are most effective.
