3 Steps to a Beautiful Lawn

Step 1 - Feed it

A thick, good-looking lawn will tell you how it gets that way - from a kind homeowner who makes sure it's well fed. Nourish your lawn to the roots with an application of nutrient-rich lawn food. Your thanks will come in the form of a lush, green lawn.

Step 2 - Patch it

Your lawn loves hosting pets, parties, and pla dates too. All that fun combined with weather-related stressors can leave it looking worse for the wear. Show your lawn you care by applying a patch-and-repair product in Spring or early Fall. Soon, thin, bare spots will fill in with Lush, green, ready-for-what's-next turfgrass.

Step 3 - Seed it

Take your lawn to its next level with an application of high-quality grass seed. Whether you're starting from scratch or with a thin, patchy lawn, your lawn will love a good seeding or overseeding. Apply in late Spring or early Fall for a thicker, greener, happier lawn.

When You Feed Your Garden It Shows!

Just like people, plants need to eat in order to thrive. Regularly feeding your plants ensures they grow properly, produce beautiful blooms and fruit, and build resilience to harsh weather conditions and disease.

Slow Release

Slow release plant food such as Miracle-Gro® Shake 'n Feed® All Purpose Plant Food, usually comes in granular form, and the nutrients are released slowly over time. Mix this type of fertilizer directly into the soil surrounding the plant. To find out how much and how often to feed, it's always best to refer to the product label. To bring your garden to the next level, you can apply Miracle-Gro® Shake 'n Feed® All Purpose Plant Food at the start of the season and follow up with Miracle-Gro® Water Soluble All Purpose Plant Food throughout the summer.

Water Soluble

Water soluble fertilizers, the feeding happens when you water. Miracle-Gro® Water Soluble All Purpose Plant Food, for example, can either be mixed in a watering can or delivered through your garden hose with the Miracle-Gro® Garden Feeder attachment. The hose attachment mixes the plant food for you, so all you have to do is water as you normally would. These kinds of plant foods need to be applied more often than slow release fertilizer, but the nutrients reach plants more quickly.
