Lawn fertilization is imperative to keep your lawn green, lush, full, and disease free. Having proper maintenance of your lawn is more to do with just cutting grass and watering, although water and irrigation are still needed and the most important thing. With water and mowing you also need to do other things to keep your lawn looking like like a golf course green, lush, full, weed, and disease free. You have to feed the grass nutrients. The three main macronutrients which are Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K) are the elements that you feed to the grass to keep your lawn from dying, brown spots, suppression of weeds and disease which promotes pest. Fertilizers comes in a granular form and a liquid form. The granular form are nutrient pellets that are coated with a wax that allows the nutrients to dissolve in the ground in a slow rate. The liquid form of the nutrients is a fast-acting application spray to the lawn or ornamentals. Having a green lawn and plants that are flowering and not dead are important to the homeowner, property manager, and the community. There are a lot of people who don’t have the time or ability to take care of their lawn. Calling a professional lawn service will take care of the schedule of spraying, because nutrients must be applied at a certain time of the season and a certain number of times to get the full benefit of adding the nutrients. Nutrients can be organic or synthetic. Synthetic nutrients are chemical based nutrients that are more potent than organic and have more chemical properties added to the solution. Organic nutrients fertilizers are less potent and safer but also feeds the soil and the plant for a longer period of time. Organic fertilizers feed the microorganisms in the soil, it takes care of the biology and has less salt build up, while synthetic are salt based and build up in the lawn fast while not feeding the biology of the lawn. Organic type of fertilizer is useful to the people who have pets, or children, are allergic to certain chemicals or who don’t want to inhale whatever synthetics you spray inside the home, or outside the home. There are 16 other type of nutrients like iron (Fe) and magnesium (Mg) that will feed the plants, soil, and grass to help promote a healthy lawn.
