Why fertilize?

    Fertilizing a lawn offers numerous advantages that contribute to its health, vibrancy, and resilience. It provides essential nutrients, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which are crucial for grass growth. Nitrogen enhances leaf growth and contributes to the lush green color that is highly desirable. Phosphorus supports root development, enhancing the lawn’s drought resistance. Potassium enhances overall resilience, enabling the grass to withstand diseases and environmental stresses.

A well-fertilized lawn effectively competes with weeds by filling in bare spots where they would otherwise establish roots. It also recovers more quickly from stressors, such as heavy use or extreme weather conditions, due to the sustained energy provided by the nutrients. Additionally, thicker grass provides better soil stability, reducing erosion, particularly on sloped areas. Over time, the organic matter accumulated from healthy clippings, achieved through grasscycling, naturally improves soil quality. This results in a more lush, durable yard that is easier to maintain.
