Just as humans require a sufficient and stable diet to develop and maintain good health, plants likewise require the right nourishment. Plants take up nutrients from the earth as they grow. We must restock those nutrients. Fertilizer gives plants the vital nutrients they need, acting as sustenance for them. It is crucial to provide your plants with proper nutrition if you want the lushest, greenest garden possible with robust, healthy leaves and root systems. Just remember to abide by the four Rs: the right source at the right rate, the right place, the right time.

The right source
When examining the fertilizer, you will see that the bag has three numbers on it. The ratios of the three primary fertilizers—nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK)—are shown below. If the bag reads 21-4-3, for instance, it means that it contains 21% nitrogen, 4% phosphorus, and 3% potassium. Phosphorus nourishes seedlings and encourages new root growth, potassium is essential for overall health and guards against illness and stress, and nitrogen is necessary for promoting growth and green color.

The right rate
Don’t be overly cautious; sometimes less is more. Instead, read the bag’s directions carefully. To help apply fertilizer evenly across your grass, use a spreader. If applied unevenly, it may cause color changes or burn if applied excessively. Avoid applying fertilizer by hand. You can use both water-soluble and granular fertilizers in your garden.

The right time
Start fertilizing your lawn every other month in April, or as soon as it starts to turn green, and keep doing so until the fall, when the ground doesn’t freeze. Apply granular fertilizer to your garden once a month or once a week using a water-soluble solution.

The right place
Make sure the fertilizer is where the plant needs it most by following the directions on the package and using the right tools. In order to keep the nutrients in the soil where the plants can feast on them, fertilizer shouldn’t be applied before a significant downpour.

You can put surplus fertilizer to use, give it away, or store it. Plants with robust, healthy root systems are more resilient to heat, drought, and wear and tear when they receive regular fertilizer. Fertilizer sharing among neighbors, family, and friends promotes the growth of lush, lovely lawns and gardens. Fertilizer should be kept in its original packing and kept in a dry location away from direct sunlight.
