When to Fertilize Your Lawn

Your yard can benefit from lawn fertilization year-round. Since different seasons bring different elements and weather conditions, using the correct lawn food grass fertilizer for the specific time of year is important. Use these tips to determine which ones to use during each season:

• Multi-step fertilizer: These incredible packs tell you exactly when to use each bag during the year. Using two bags in the spring, one in the summer and one in the fall, helps ensure your yard thrives throughout the year.
• Spring season: Spring welcomes brand-new grass, plants and flowers. To ensure your new sod and seeds thrive, use nutrient-packed spring fertilizer ideal for a new lawn.
• Summer season: In the heat, your lawn will require extra food and iron to stay alive. To keep it growing, shop for either all-year fertilizer options or specific summer lawn fertilizer.
• Fall season: Prepare for next spring with a nitrogen-rich fall fertilizer that helps build strong, healthy roots for a thriving future lawn.

Grass Fertilizer: Liquid Vs. Granules

Fertilizer for grass and lawns is plentiful, so deciding on the right treatment can be hard. This sometimes comes down to choosing between liquid and granule fertilizer.

Liquid Grass Fertilizer

The big difference between liquid vs. granular lawn feed is how liquid fertilizers typically provide immediate nutrient release for quick absorption. They are applied using sprayers, watering cans or drip irrigation systems.

Granular Fertilizer

Grass fertilizer granules are easy to spread by hand and broadcast or drop spreaders. You have more control over your lawn feeding schedule with slow-release options also available. This NPK fertilizer contains essential primary nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in use-specific ratios. It also includes various secondary nutrients.

Synthetic Vs. Organic Grass Fertilizer

Made from organic matter or natural byproducts, organic lawn fertilizers provide beneficial nutrients to your soil as they break down. Organic fertilizers offer an environmentally friendly lawn feed option with slow-release nutrients to improve soil structure and reduce the risk of chemical buildup.

Synthetic options, however, are faster-acting and more quickly absorbed for targeted solutions to lawn care. What’s more, they offer greater consistency in their nutrient composition. They’ve been proven to have a longer shelf life and are more cost-effective.

Whether you choose organic, synthetic or a mix will depend on your preferences and lawn care goals. Scotts 4 Step Program is a popular synthetic fertilizer program, but Ace also carries alternatives to Scotts, including organic lawn and fertilizer programs.
