To achieve a lush, green lawn, you'll need four key lawn and garden supplies: two types of fertilizers and two types of weed control products.
First, for fertilization, use a balanced all-purpose fertilizer like a 10-10-10 mix, which provides nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in equal parts. Nitrogen promotes vibrant green color and top growth, phosphorus supports strong root development, especially important for grasses like Bermuda that constantly renew their root systems, and potassium strengthens the lawn’s overall health, enhancing its resistance to diseases like spring dead spots.

Pair this with a natural organic fertilizer, such as Procare Natural, which is a slow-release biosolid. The combination of a quick-release synthetic and a slow-release organic fertilizer ensures consistent nutrient availability, giving your lawn a sustained boost over time.
For weed control, start with a post-emergent herbicide like Spectracide Weed Stop for Lawns Plus Crabgrass Killer. This product effectively targets and eliminates existing weeds, including tough varieties like crabgrass and nutsedge. It's available in both hose-in sprayers and concentrate forms, allowing you to choose the application method that suits your needs.
Finally, prevent future weed growth with a pre-emergent herbicide, such as Spectracide Weed Stop for Lawns Plus Crabgrass Preventer. This granular product creates a barrier in the soil, stopping weed seeds from germinating. By combining these four essential lawn and garden supplies, you’ll maintain a healthy, weed-free lawn year-round.
