They are all the things a grass plant need to go, in this article we will be discussing Nutrients.

 

Nutrients are broken down into two groups Macro and Micro.

 

The main elements in Macro are NPK;


 

NPK

 

N – Nitrogen

Keeps the grass plant green and helps with plant growth – Creates a vibrant green plant and keeps it growing.

P – Phosphorus

Promotes root growth – particularly helpful when overseeding or trying to establish new grass

K – Potassium

Improves disease resistance and general plant health – You do not see a visual response however it’s critical for stress relief

 

An easy way to remember NPK do is – Up, down and all around.
