Choosing the Right Lawn Fertilizer with Turf Trust

Choosing the Right Lawn Fertilizer with Turf Trust

There are many lawn fertilizer brands on the market, most of which you have never heard of. Everyone knows the Scotts brand; they are in every big chain (Home Depot, Lowes, Walmart), but not many know about their rivals.

There are 4 main fertilizer brand competitors;

Pennington

Jonathan-Green

Turf Trust

Greenview

Most of these brands can be found in local gardening stores (Meadows Farms, Merrifields, etc).

When choosing a lawn fertilizer, the most important factor is the amount of water-insoluble nitrogen the product contains. This means that the grass will be slowly fed nitrogen (the stuff that keeps it green) for several months. The advantage of slow fed nitrogen is that it does not burn your lawn like traditional Scotts fertilizers, and also provides vital nutrients over a long period of time.

If you are in need of a cheap fertilizer to give a quick green burst to your lawn, go with Scotts. It is easy to find and not costly. But if you desire a higher quality lawn, I would reccomend either Turf Trust or Jonathan Green Organic Fertilizer.

If you are worried about your pet or the environment, use Jonathan Green Organic Fertilizer. It is a safe alternative fertilizer.

If you don't have any pets, use Turf Trust Professional Lawn Fertilizer. It is the highest-grade lawn fertilizer on the market and will give you optimum results.

Pennington and Greenview are both decent brands, but don't offer the same micronutrients and nitrogen sources as Turf Trust.
