OAKVILLE BEAVER Friday, May 15, 2009 · 24 HOME AND GARDEN Don't put your lawn spreader away just yet (NC)--Spring forward and fall back are routines that Canadians are quite familiar with. So too is the routine to get out when the forsythia is in bloom and give your lawn it's kick start spring feeding. Follow that up with a fall feeding when the leaves start to drop and old man winter is peaking from around the corner. But to truly have a thick healthy lawn that helps to crowd out weeds, it is now time for additional lawn fertilizer. Maintaining a thick healthy lawn is one of the best pro-active measures homeowners can do to help in the battle against the highly dreaded dandelion. An optimized lawn maintenance program includes an application of corn gluten in early spring to prevent weed and crab grass seeds from germinating, followed up by four fertilizer applications throughout the season in early spring, late spring, early fall and late fall. The key to successful lawn fertilizing comes from choosing a product with an All In One Particle that is guaranteed not to burn your lawn. Products like Scotts Turf Builder and Scotts Turf Builder Pro Lawn fertilizers. Multiple feedings not only thicken established lawns but also promotes denser and deeper roots, which result in lawns that require less water as compared to unfed lawns.
