Seed Starters / Fall Fertilizers

Using a seed starter fertilizer is very important when seeding a new turf.  Young grass plants require more nutrients in the soil because they don't have a large root structure for up-taking the nutrients.  A 1-2-1 ratio fertilizer is recommended because phosphorus is needed for promoting root growth.  The nitrogen will help thicken the foliage quickly and the potassium will improve the plants stress tolerance.  We also recommend a second application about a month later to encourage a healthy thick turf that will withstand drought, disease and pest damage. 

The main goal of fertilizing in the Fall is to promote a healthy and strong root structure. During the growing season most of the nutrients goes toward leaf growth. Fertilizing after leaf growth has slowed down, forces the nutrients to promote a root growth instead of leaf growth. Root growth is the key to a healthy turf that can withstand grub and drought damage.

ProScape 16-25-12 Blended Fertilizer with 25% MESA
25% controlled release nitrogen from MESA, a high quality source that outperforms SCU products.  Superior to other starter fertilizers because controlled release nitrogen is available weeks after application for rapid development of new seedlings.  Economically smart!

Turfgrass Maintenance Fertilizers

As the title states, these fertilizers are designed to maintain the health of your established turfgrass.  You can water your lawn all day long, but without regular fertilizing throughout the season your turf will never be the best that it can be. Nitrogen is the most important nutrient in a fertilizer for maintaining a healthy turf. Nitrogen moves through the soil quickly, therefore it is very common for nitrogen levels to be low.  Hence the importance of using a high quality slow release nitrogen like MESA.  MESA is more predictable and will last longer than the polymer coated SCU products, which are found in many of the competing fertilizer brands.  Potassium promotes plant stress tolerance and is the second most important nutrient in a maintenance fertilizer. Potassium will move through the soil but not as quickly as nitrogen.  Phosphorous promotes a healthy root structure but does not move though the soil quickly, therefore it is not as important in a maintenance fertilizer. Phosphorous levels are usually fine as long as you are applying a high phosphorous fertilizer every Fall.
