Why Use a Low-Phosphorus, Slow-Release Fertilizer?
1. Protect lakes, streams and groundwater; 2. Promote steady and uniform grass growth; 3. Avoid over-fertilization and “burning” of grass; 4. Provide essential nitrogen for building healthy turf grass. Sweep up Fertilizer from paved surfaces back onto the lawn – Fertilizer left on sidewalks and driveways can easily wash into storm drains, local rivers and nearby lakes. Avoid weed-and-feed combination products – Combination products often add unnecessary herbicides to the landscape. A better approach is to identify the weed and selectively spot treat – or dig weeds by hand.
