What are the different types of lawn fertilizers that we use here at Bountiful Lawns? To begin with, we use only high quality fertilizers. These fertilizers have been integrated into our program–specifically designed for the Salt Lake and surrounding areas–to give your lawn the nutrients it needs, when it needs them. Here is a sample of the products we might use on your lawn:
April - 19-3-5 fertilizer with sulphur and pre-emergent. This fertilizer helps lower pH and prevent tough summer weeds.
May - 28-4-10 extra slow release fertilizer with iron and humates. This product helps develop root growth and keep nutrients in the root zone.
June - Hydretain™ Moisture Management. This product helps retain water in the soil.
July - Revive™ on struggling areas. This product helps your grass to withstand the heat of the summer. It helps water penetrate hard soil and feeds microbial activity to loosen the soil.
August - 19-3-5 slow release fertilizer with iron, manganese, and magnesium. This fertilizer contains micronutrients that help prevent fungus.
