So understanding your climate, your plant zone, the type of grass you have and the appearance you want you grass to have will also help you find the exact fertilizer compound you need. If you are unfamiliar with this process, then it is a good idea to visit your local nursery for some assistance.
Once you have purchased your fertilizer, it is actually a simple task to get your lawn fertilized. Using a rolling or hand spun spreader, add the fertilizer a little at a time and roll or spin the spreader evenly around your yard. Make sure to spread the fertilizer throughout the lawn to create a consistent lush look.
