Fertilization |
| |
| Lawns that are
discolored, slow-growing, or have invading weeds or other pest problems
may not be properly fertilized. Fertilizer is important for healthy,
vigorous plant growth and development. Because many of the required
nutrients for turf grass are found naturally in the soil, fertilization
practices focus |
|
| |
on the
supply of three primary nutrients — nitrogen, phosphorus, and
potassium.
Nitrogen is the only nutrient that turf grass needs on a regular basis.
Lawns may occasionally be deficient in iron, and fertilizers containing
iron may be supplemented. As nitrogen is applied, both root and shoot
growth increases. If too much nitrogen is applied too frequently,
shoots will continue to grow yet root growth will slow, leaving the
turf vulnerable to problems. Trust Lawn Care offers a 5 application
fertilizer program for year round lawn health. Click here to receive a free estimate for
our program. We also suggest pairing our fertilizer program with
seasonal aerations. |
