Want to look out your window this spring and see green?
Yes, that’s your lawn out there. It’s a living thing. And like any living thing, to thrive it needs food, water, and protection from disease and parasites. We at Greenview speak loudly on behalf of the good old American lawn. In fact we care so much that we use the same technology used on championship golf courses—promoting slow and steady growth of those delicate grass roots.
But we also know how hectic life can be for you homeowners. So that’s why we say: keep it simple. A little raking, some aerating and nitrogen will bring back the green in your yard. Nitrogen is the key nutrient in turf fertilizer. Whether you have Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, fine fescue, or a tall fescue lawn, you may need 3 to 5 pounds of actual nitrogen per 1000 square feet of lawn per year to get the results you’ve dreamed of. Most brands of fertilizer call for several applications per season. We say: do it once, and do it right. One step is all you need. If you use our Greenview Fairway Formula Spring Fertilizer Weed and Feed with Crabgrass Preventer, you get the ideal combo of nutrients, like Phosphorous (P) and potassium (potash, K), and weed prevention. That’s total weed obliteration—including what the experts call “pre-emergence” (for crabgrass) and post-emergence (for broadleaf weeds).
TIP: You homeowners who consistently return grass clippings during mowing will see the best results. No need to worry about when to fertilize. If you are on our Annual Lawn Plan, we monitor the weather for you. When your Greenview bags arrive it's time!
