Choosing the Right Fertilizer for Your Lawn:
- Organic: Derived from natural sources like plants, animals, or minerals.
Inorganic (synthetic): Chemically produced fertilizers, often fast-acting and readily available to plants. - Slow-release: Releases nutrients gradually over time, reducing the risk of nutrient runoff.
- Fast-release: Provides nutrients quickly to plants, often used for immediate needs.
- Nitrogen (N): Essential for plant growth, particularly leaf and stem development.
- Phosphorus (P): Promotes root growth, flower development, and fruit production.
- Potassium (K): Strengthens stems, improves disease resistance, and enhances overall plant health.
- Micronutrients: Trace elements like iron, zinc, and manganese, essential for plant growth in small amounts.

- Consider your lawn type: Some weed controls are more suitable for certain types of grass (e.g., fescue, bluegrass).
