Lawn Care Calculator

Most lawns need 1 lb of nitrogen per 1,000 sqft per application, with 3-4 applications per year. A 5,000 sqft lawn needs about 4-5 bags of fertilizer annually.

Most lawns need 1-1.5 inches of water per week. Water deeply 2-3 times per week rather than lightly every day. Early morning is the best time to water.

New lawn: 6-8 lbs per 1,000 sqft. Overseeding: 3-4 lbs per 1,000 sqft. Rates vary by grass type.
