Fescue - Pre-Emergent - Lawn Fertilizers - The Home Depot

Question 1

When is the best time to fertilize my lawn?

Accepted Answer

The best time to fertilize your lawn depends on your grass type and time of year. Apply cool-season grass fertilizer once in the early spring to help your lawn recover from winter, and again in fall for root growth and winter prep. Apply warm-season grass fertilizer once in the late spring to early summer when your grass is fully green and actively growing, and again in mid-summer. Never fertilize your lawn during a drought or extreme heat, and always water your lawn after applying fertilizer unless you are using a liquid product.

Question 3

What do the N-P-K numbers on fertilizer bags mean?

Accepted Answer

The N-P-K numbers represent the percentage of the three essential nutrients in the fertilizer: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K). The ideal ratio for healthy plant growth depends on your lawn's unique needs and the time of year. Nitrogen promotes leafy green growth and overall plant vigor, phosphorus boosts root development and flower and fruit production, and potassium improves disease resistance and overall plant health. Your local garden and lawn expert is here to help you select the blend with the right ratio for your goals.
