Fertilizers
Understanding Fertilizer
The N-P-K Ratio
Fertilizers are rated by 3 numbers on the front of the bag. They represent the ratio of three important nutrients: nitrogen = N, phosphorus = P, potassium = K
- Nitrogen makes plants grow and become greener
- Phosphorus stimulates root and seeding development
- Potassium promotes disease and drought tolerance

Longer Feedings, Less Growth & Deep Greening for Existing Lawns
Our 20-5-5 3% fe Slow Release continuously feeds and greens your lawn for 8 to 12 weeks. 50% of the nitrogen in this fertilizer comes from slow release nutra-lean nitrogen that produces a slow steady feeding and suppresses surge growth. Our Slow Release quickly greens up your lawn and gives it a gradual feeding over time as the grass needs it. Green Valley Slow Release also contains iron for deeper greening. Because of slower, time released growth, you will mow less and have a thicker, greener, more consistent lawn through out the year.
