Technical Features
- 24-25-4 N-P-K ratio: High phosphorus content (25) directly supports root system development in seedlings, which is critical during the establishment phase when root anchoring is the primary growth priority.
- Granule form factor: Dry granular application allows for even distribution across the seedbed without requiring dissolution in water, simplifying application with standard broadcast or drop spreaders.
- 15 lb. bag covering 5,000 sq. ft.: Provides a defined application rate suited for medium-sized lawn projects, reducing the risk of over-application and nutrient runoff.
- Compatible with all grass types, including Bermuda Grass: Eliminates the need to select a grass-specific formula, making it suitable for multi-region use across diverse turf varieties.
- Formulated for new-lawn application conditions: Nutrient ratios are calibrated for seedling-stage grass rather than established turf, reducing the risk of nutrient imbalance during early growth.
Applications
- Seeding new lawns from scratch on bare or prepared soil
- Laying sod where accelerated root-to-soil bonding is required
- Installing grass plugs in patchy or damaged lawn areas
- Overseeding medium-sized lawns (up to 5,000 sq. ft. per bag) in need of rejuvenation
- New lawn establishment across multiple U.S. climate regions
