Lawn Fertilizer Services in Peachtree City, GA

Lawn fertilizers typically contain three primary nutrients: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). These nutrients play essential roles in promoting healthy plant growth. Nitrogen is responsible for leaf and stem development, phosphorus aids in root growth and flower production, and potassium contributes to plant health and disease resistance. The ratio of these nutrients in the fertilizer may vary depending on your lawn's specific needs.

Homeowners can fertilize small lawns themselves, following fertilizer instructions. However, hiring a professional lawn care service can ensure proper fertilization and personalized recommendations based on your lawn's specific needs for larger or more complex lawns or if you're unsure about the right fertilizer and application methods.

The lawn fertilization timing depends on the grass type and your region's climate. During active growth, the best time to fertilize cool-season grasses, such as Kentucky bluegrass and fescue, is in early fall and late spring. For warm-season grasses like Bermuda grass and Zoysia grass, fertilization is typically done during late spring and summer when they are actively growing. Consider local weather conditions and follow recommendations for your grass type to achieve optimal results.
