How Do I Know
That A Bag Of Fertilizer Is P-Free? |
On any bag or box of fertilizer, there is a string of
three numbers. The first number indicates nitrogen, the middle number indicates
phosphorus content and will read "0" if the product is phosphorus-free, and
the third number indicates potassium content. Clean Green Fertilizers, Practical Soy LLC P-free Fertilizer fromTotal Lake Mngmt. |
Will
Phosphorus-Free Fertilizer Keep My Lawn Healthy?
Phosphorus is necessary to grow healthy lawns. However, most soils in
Ann Arbor, as well as many parts of Michigan, already have a sufficient
amount. In these cases, adding more fertilizer is not needed and will not
benefit your lawn. Healthy lawns can be maintained with phosphorus-free
fertilizer. If you think that your lawn may not have enough phosphorus,
you can have a soil sample tested for phosphorus content. Soil Testing Information for Michigan
