Tips and Tools

Conservation Tip of the Month: September

Aerate and fertilize your lawn with a winterization fertilizer or a fertilizer containing more phosphorus, which keeps the root system healthy. During the fall months, grass stores nutrients for the approaching cold weather. Phosphorus (a common winter fertilizer ingredient) plays a key role in storing and transferring energy within a lawn’s root system and helps grass become more tolerant of diseases, heat, cold and drought.
