The document discusses dormant fertilization of turfgrasses, particularly focusing on the application of nitrogen fertilizers during the dormant season, typically in early December in New Jersey. It outlines the advantages, such as reduced risk of fertilizer burn and improved turf quality in late winter and early spring, especially for cool-season grasses like Kentucky bluegrass. However, it also highlights disadvantages, including potential nitrogen leaching and reduced cold hardiness. The document emphasizes that while dormant fertilization can be beneficial, it should not replace fall fertilization and requires careful consideration based on grass species and climate.

Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

Should you fertilize grass when its dormant?

Dormant lawns should not be fertilized. However, if you have a sprinkler system and water is available, summer fertilization can be beneficial. Im attaching an article from MSU Extension which explains summer lawn care.

How late can you fertilize the lawn?

Warm-season grasses should be fertilized from April to May, then again from September to October, while less common cool-season grasses should be fertilized in March, May, and then again from October to November.

When should you not fertilize your lawn?

Fertilize when the grass is actively growing, which is typically after a rain or when the soil is moist. Avoid fertilizing during extreme heat or drought conditions. If your lawn appears yellow, has stunted growth, or shows poor color, it may be time to fertilize.

Should you fertilize dormant plants?

Its best to fertilize when the plants are actively in growth. Its pointless to fertilize if you let your plants go dormant since they wont be taking in any nutrients until theyre actively growing again.

Should you fertilize dormant bermuda grass?

You definitely dont NEED to be fertilizing. But fertilizing one time during dormancy is a decent thing to do. The nutrients will work into the rootzone of the grass, the roots will use a tiny amount of those nutrients, and the rest will latch onto the soil so its there when the Bermuda wants it in the spring.

Will fertilizer bring back dead grass?

If grass is dead (truly dead, not just dormant), nothing will bring it back. If its dormant, all it takes is a little water to turn it green again. I highly recommend doing lawn care research, especially when it comes to the use of chemicals.

What to do when grass goes dormant?

Remove all the dead grass. Rip up the soil a bit. Level it out. Toss down some seed and peat moss on top. Keep it moist.
