Experts in Lawn Fertilization

When it comes to choosing the best fertilizer for lawn care, understanding the NPK ratio is crucial. NPK stands for Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K), the three primary nutrients that plants need to thrive. Each element plays a unique role:

  • Nitrogen (N): Promotes lush, green growth and is essential for photosynthesis.
  • Phosphorus (P): Supports root development and flower production.
  • Potassium (K): Enhances overall plant health and disease resistance.

Choosing the right NPK ratio depends on your lawn's specific needs and the time of year. Our experts at Heroes Lawn Care of Charleston, SC can help you determine the perfect blend for your lawn.
