Which brands of lawn fertilizers are available at The Home Depot?

At The Home Depot, we know that every lawn deserves the right fertilizer. We carry a wide variety of the top brands of lawn fertilizers, such as BIOADVANCED, GreenView, and Pennington. Whatever brand you choose, get a fertilizer that supports even growth, so that you can mow less often and get more consistent results across the yard.

How often should I fertilize my lawn?

The right application frequency depends on your type of grass, soil health, and choice of fertilizer. Fertilize cool-season lawns like Kentucky bluegrass, fescue, and ryegrass two to four times a year, in early and late spring and fall. Fertilize warm-season grasses like Bermuda, Zoysia, and St. Augustine three to five times per year, in late spring, mid and late summer, and early fall. Apply slow-release fertilizers once every 8 to 10 weeks, and quick-release fertilizers once every 4 to 6 weeks.
