Pre-Emergent

Question 1

Is this fertilizer safe for my kids?

Accepted Answer

Some fertilizers can be harmful to children if ingested or if they come into contact with their skin. Look for fertilizers labeled "safe for kids" to ensure they are safe for your family.

Question 2

How do I know if I need a pre-emergent or post-emergent fertilizer?

Accepted Answer

Pre-emergent fertilizer is applied before weeds sprout, preventing them from growing. Post-emergent fertilizer is applied after weeds have emerged, to kill them.

Question 3

Will this fertilizer control crabgrass?

Accepted Answer

If you are concerned about crabgrass, choose a fertilizer labeled "controls crabgrass". These fertilizers contain herbicides that target crabgrass specifically.

Question 4

How often should I fertilize my lawn?

Accepted Answer

The frequency of fertilizing depends on the time of year and your grass type. You may need to fertilize every 6-8 weeks during the growing season. But in the winter, you might only need to fertilize once or twice. Check the fertilizer label for specific application recommendations.

Question 5

What kind of lawn fertilizer should I use?

Accepted Answer

The best fertilizer for your lawn depends on your grass type and current condition. Look for fertilizers with the right NPK ratio (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) for your needs. For example, if you're dealing with thin grass, you'll need more nitrogen to help it grow.
