If you’ve ever wondered how your neighbor gets such a dark green lawn, the answer is probably iron. A favorite product of lawn care professionals and golf courses, iron supplements help to impart a lush, deep, blue-green color to lawn grasses. Iron is particularly effective with fescue and bluegrass, helping these grasses stay deep green during the hot summer months without the increased growth (and subsequent water needs) caused by nitrogen fertilizers. Iron also helps control moss and is the active ingredient in products such as Moss Max. If you're watering your grass properly, but it's pale green or yellow instead of dark green, your grass is most likely nutrient deficient. Yellow lawns generally lack key nutrients such as iron and nitrogen. These deficiencies cause your grass to experience growth problems, including chlorosis, a condition that occurs when the green chlorophyll in the grass leaf tissue doesn't develop. Chlorophyll fails to be produced when there is a lack of iron in the turf. With mild iron deficiencies, lawns will yellow, but with severe iron chlorosis, turfgrass can die. Iron and nitrogen deficiencies can often occur simultaneously. Application Rates for Encap Fast Acting Iron Iron Lawns 20 lbs. per 10,000 sq. ft.
