FERTILIZERS

Here’s a breakdown of different types of fertilizers, including combination types and their benefits:

Granular Fertilizers

• Slow-release: Provides nutrients over time, reducing frequent applications.
• Quick-release: Delivers nutrients immediately for fast plant growth.

Liquid Fertilizers

• Fast-acting: Absorbed quickly through roots and leaves.
• Easy application: Can be sprayed or used in irrigation systems.

Organic Fertilizers

• Compost, manure, bone meal, fish emulsion: Improves soil health and microbial activity.
• Slow, natural release: Reduces the risk of over-fertilization.

Synthetic (Chemical) Fertilizers

• NPK blends (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium): Designed for specific plant needs.
• High efficiency: Provides precise nutrients for optimal growth.

Combination Fertilizers (Blended for Multiple Benefits)

• Weed & Feed: Contains fertilizer plus herbicides to control weeds while feeding lawns.
• Insect & Disease Control Fertilizers: Provides nutrients while protecting against pests and diseases.
• Starter Fertilizers: High in phosphorus for root development in new lawns and transplants.
• Winterizer Fertilizers: Helps lawns store nutrients for winter survival and early spring green-up.

Specialty Fertilizers

• Micronutrient fertilizers: Provides essential elements like iron, zinc, and magnesium.
• Soil conditioners: Improves soil structure and enhances nutrient uptake.
