Nutrients for a Greener World

Nutrients for a Greener World

Healthy grass makes several important contributions to our environment. It reduces pollution, absorbs greenhouse gas, and  produces an abundant supply of oxygen. Did you know that a 50-foot by 50-foot home lawn creates enough oxygen for a family of four - every day?

Lawns also clean water through filtration, reduce soil erosion and water run-off, and provide a soft, safe and cool outdoor space for people and pets to rest and play.

Just like all living things, plants need the proper balance of nutrients to grow and stay healthy. Proper feeding, watering, and timely cutting are the most important factors for a thick, healthy lawn that can take a pounding, crowd out weed seeds and better withstand drought conditions. Fertilizer ensures your lawn has all the nutrients, in the proper amounts, it needs to grow.
