Ragweed - Lawn Fertilizers - The Home Depot

Question 1

What type of lawn fertilizers are available?

Accepted Answer

There are three main types of fertilizers: granular, liquid, and organic. Each one is designed for different needs and conditions. Slow-release granular fertilizers deliver nutrients to your lawn gradually over time, keeping your grass healthy and vibrant with fewer applications. For fast green-up, select a quick-release blend designed to deliver nutrients immediately, but with more frequent applications. Liquid fertilizers absorb quickly for rapid results, while organic formulas improve soil health and microbial activity. We also carry synthetic fertilizers for fast, predictable results, and specialty formulas for specific lawn conditions, grass types, and seasons.

Question 2

What's the difference between a "weed and feed" product and a fertilizer designed to strengthen roots?

Accepted Answer

Weed and feed combines fertilizer with herbicides to nourish your lawn while controlling existing weeds, saving you time and effort. A fertilizer designed to strengthen roots features a higher phosphorus and potassium blend, delivering pure nutrition for strong roots and a foundation for healthy growth and resilience without targeting weeds.

Question 3

How do I know which fertilizer my lawn needs?

Accepted Answer

Start with a soil test to identify nutrient deficiencies and pH levels. This extra step prevents over-fertilization and ensures you choose the right formula. Then choose a fertilizer that matches your grass type and season. Select a high nitrogen fertilizer for green-up, a starter fertilizer for new lawns, and a winterizing blend for fall protection. Cool-season grasses like Kentucky bluegrass and fescue need more nitrogen in spring and fall, while warm-season grasses like Bermuda and Zoysia need nitrogen during summer growth. Consider specialty blends for certain conditions like a weed and feed product, organic blend, or a pet and kid safe formula.
