USE SLOW-RELEASE FERTILIZERS FOR WATER QUALITY PROTECTION and a HEALTHY LAWN. 

What is a Slow-Release Fertilizer? 

Slow-release fertilizers provide a steady supply of plant nutrients over an extended period of time. They require fewer applications because the materials are held in the soil and gradually release the nutrients. 
Why use Slow-Release Fertilizers? 

To protect lakes, streams, and ground water; to promote steady, uniform grass growth; to provide essential nitrogen for building healthy turfgrass; to avoid over-fertilization and "burning" of plants; and to protect soil microbial life and earthworms.
 
Slow-release fertilizers often save time and may save money in the long-run. Products may appear more expensive, but fewer applications are needed. If products include organic matter, the general health of the soil can be improved, thereby reducing the potential for pests and diseases.
