Home » Lawn & Garden » Lawn Care » How do I know what kind of fertilizer to use on my lawn?Fertilizing your lawn can be an intimidating task for many people. If you are like most people you fear destroying your lawn with too much or not the right kind of fertilizer or you just don’t know when to use it. As discussed before, it may be in your best interest to call a local fertilizing expert to come and give you some professional advice. Another good, and less expensive, idea is to go to your local garden center and have one of their on site experts get you started on a program.
The kind of fertilizer you will use on your lawn is entirely dependent upon your soil. Is your soil sandy, is it highly acidic, is the soil rich or poor in nutrients? These are some of the questions you will need to get answers to before you can begin to fertilize your lawn with confidence.
