What type of fertilizer is best for the lawn in the fall?
When selecting a lawn fertilizer we can either select a lawn fertilizer high in nitrogen which will stimulate grass growth or if our lawn is in fairly good shape we may want to use a winterizing fertilizer in which the amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are more balanced. The 3 numbers on the fertilizer bag or box will tell you the percentage of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium.
