Back to EpisodesSpring Fertilizing Guide for Your Yard
Description
Spring is the ideal time to fertilize your plants, with late March or early April being optimal for trees, shrubs, and perennials. Lawn fertilization should be done now, unless you recently did so in the fall. Vegetables and annuals should be fertilized at planting time. A high-nitrogen lawn formula, at least twenty percent nitrogen, is recommended for lawns. A general-purpose fertilizer like sixteen-sixteen-sixteen is suitable for trees, shrubs, flowers, and vegetables. Potted plants benefit from slow-release options like Osmocote. Lawn fertilizers should have at least twenty-five percent slow-release nitrogen to prevent burning and ensure steady color throughout the summer.
