Fertilome New Lawn Starter Fertilizer is specifically formulated to help new grass seeds, sod, and sprigs develop a strong, deep root system quickly. Unlike regular lawn fertilizers, it contains a high concentration of Phosphorus, which is the critical nutrient for early root establishment and "thickening" a new lawn.
Optimal Nutrient Ratio: It features a 9-13-7 NPK ratio, providing a balanced boost of Nitrogen for greening, a heavy dose of Phosphorus for roots, and Potassium for overall plant health and disease resistance.
Versatile Use: It is safe and effective for all types of grass, whether you are starting a lawn from scratch, overseeding an existing lawn, or laying down new sod.
Safety for New Growth: The formula is designed to be non-burning when applied according to the directions, ensuring it won't damage delicate new sprouts or seedlings.
Long-Lasting Performance: This fertilizer is formulated to provide a slow-release source of nutrients, helping the grass stay healthy throughout the critical first few weeks of growth.
