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

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

Non-organic fertilizers are generally more readily available and provide quicker results than organic fertilizers. They can be beneficial in getting your lawn green quickly.

What is in fertilizers?

Fertilizers are made up of different nutrients, with the most common being nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). You'll often see these listed on fertilizer bags as an NPK ratio, like 10-10-10. The numbers represent the ratio of each nutrient in the fertilizer.

Question 6

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.
