Timely fertilization helps keep lawn grasses green and growing.
Weeds in lawns are one result of sparse, unfertilized turf. For the average lawn, you need to buy at least 150 pounds of mixed fertilizer and about 100 pounds of ammonium nitrate or urea yearly. In so doing, you can make your lawn a source of pride for the entire family and also enhance your community environment. Keep your lawn well fed by following these simple instructions. The return of grass clippings to the soil will probably help reduce some of your fertilizer needs.
