| Fertigation
vs. Granular Fertilizers |
| |
| Fertigation
is the best, most cost-effective and efficient way to
deliver nutrients to grass, plants and ornamentals.
Supplying grass and plants with small, precise amounts
of fertilizer through an irrigation system allows
plants to thrive in a constantly nutrient-rich
environment. Fertigation keeps the nutrients readily
available to the plant resulting in strong root growth
and better plant health. |
|
 |
Granular
fertilizers create an over-saturated nutrient zone at
the top layer of the soil causing the roots to grow
sideways and not downwards where they can find more
nutrients and water in leaner or drought periods.
Infrequent applications of granular fertilizers
substantially over-feed your lawn, which then must
endure a period of near starvation until the next
chemical release or treatment in several weeks. This
sequence of peaks and valleys is stressful for plants,
weaken plant cell structure and invite damage by
insects, drought and pests.
