About Fertilizing Lawns Grass has been around for a long time, and it has done pretty well on its own. For example, think of a meadow where the grass looks great. But, it only looks great from afar. A closer inspection reveals bare spots, weeds and unsightly "scars." We expect more from the grass in our yards. It?s not a meadow. It?s part of our home. After all, a nice lawn helps beautify and improve the value of our property, and it provides a nice place for our children to play. Lawn owners can help grass combat heat, insects, dry weather, foot traffic and constant mowing by giving the grass what it requires ? a generous supply of the proper nutrients. And, in order to achieve optimum results ? and have that thick, green lawn we expect to have surrounding our homes ? it is important to provide those nutrients year round.
