    Now that spring is here, everyone wants to beautify their green outdoor spaces. Discover four reasons why you should be fertilizing your lawn.

    Benefits of Lawn Fertilizer

    One incredible asset to your home is a beautiful lawn. It will give a great first impression if you are trying to sell your home and will make your home feel inviting to your house guests.

    Here are four reasons to use lawn fertilizer.

    1. Grass that is thick and healthy is resistant to weeds. Although most weeds are hearty, they will have trouble taking root if the roots from your grass are strong.

    2. The installation of new turf is expensive. One way to keep it soft and luxurious is to use lawn fertilizer on it.

    3. Fertilizer helps to strengthen the roots of your lawn. Strong roots will absorb water from the rain more quickly reducing the chance of muddy spots forming. It can even eliminate the muddy patches that are already present.

    4. By using lawn fertilizer, you are helping to protect the environment. Fertilizer is not able to leech into the ground water through the lawn when the roots of the grass are thick and dense. When you fertilize your lawn, you are also helping prevent pesticides from leeching into the ground water.

    If you were not sure if you should use fertilizer or not, you now have four good reasons to use it on your lawn.
