Treatment #1 Some companies give you a very low grade fertilizer consisting of only a little nitrogen, putting on only 1/2 pound or so per 1,000 square feet of turf, and call it a treatment. Some give you only a pre-emergent for crabgrass and call that a treatment. At Storm the Lawn Pro, you receive a full balanced ,time released, granular fertilizer. Plus, a pre-emergent mixed in, to stop most annual grasses and weeds from germinating. This is applied at approximately 5 pounds per square feet of turf. That’s 5-10 times more of a much better product.
