To determine how much fertilizer you need for your lawn, you can follow these steps:
-
Measure your lawn area.
-
Determine the fertilizer application rate.
-
Calculate the amount of fertilizer needed.
It's important to note that different fertilizers may have different recommended application rates, so always refer to the specific instructions provided on the fertilizer packaging. Additionally, you may want to consider factors such as soil conditions, grass type, and regional recommendations, as they can affect the fertilization needs of your lawn.
To prevent the risk of fertilizer being washed away by excessive rainfall, it is recommended to schedule fertilization a few days before a heavy rain event or to wait for several days after the rain has subsided. This approach allows the fertilizer enough time to penetrate the soil and be effectively absorbed before the rain can wash it away.
After fertilizing your lawn, it is generally recommended to wait at least 24 to 48 hours before mowing.
For optimal lawn health, it is generally recommended to fertilize your lawn every 6-8 weeks. Regular fertilization is necessary because as the grass grows and is mowed, the soil's nutrient levels deplete and need replenishment. A common schedule involves fertilizing in early spring, late spring, late summer, and just before winter sets in.
