- Fertilization is crucial for healthy lawns, providing essential nutrients for strong roots and leaves.
- Healthy lawns are vital for urban and rural landscapes.
Benefits of Fertilization
- Prevents weeds, diseases, and drought stress.
- Produces oxygen, cooling the air and absorbing pollution.
- Contributes to carbon sequestration by converting carbon dioxide into plant biomass.
- Provides outdoor recreation space.
Weed Man's Fertilizer
- Uses a proprietary slow-release granular formula.
- Provides sustained nutrient supply over weeks/months.
