Welcome to the Scotts Fertilizer Calculator, where we make lawn care a breeze and sprinkle a little fun into the mix! Using this calculator is as easy as tossing fertilizer onto your grass (well, almost).

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Visualize your lawn
First, picture your beautiful green lawn. Imagine the soft grass under your feet and the envy of your neighbors. Got it? Great!

Step 2: Input the size of your lawn
Now, grab your virtual measuring tape and enter the size of your lawn in square feet. Be honest now, no shrinking or stretching the numbers! Just type the size into the “Lawn Size” box. For instance, if your lawn is 5000 square feet, type “5000” in the box. Easy peasy!

Step 3: Choose your fertilizer rate
Next, think about the fertilizer rate. This is like giving your lawn a nutritious snack. Select the rate at which you want to apply the fertilizer, measured in pounds per 1000 square feet. Consider your lawn’s hunger and choose an appropriate rate. Type that rate into the “Fertilizer Rate” box. Let’s say you want to apply 3 pounds of fertilizer per 1000 square feet. In that case, enter “3” into the box.

Step 4: Let the magic happen
Are you ready? Drumroll, please! Hit the “Calculate” button and let the calculator work its magic. In a split second, it will tell you the exact amount of fertilizer you need for your lawn. Look at the “Result” box, and there it is—a number that represents the pounds of fertilizer your lawn is craving.

Step 5: Time to fertilize
You’ve made it! Armed with the knowledge from the calculator, it’s time to put your green thumb to work. Grab your fertilizer and apply the recommended amount to your lawn. Just imagine your grass soaking up the goodness and growing greener by the minute. You’re on your way to lawn perfection!

Remember, this calculator is designed to make your life easier and your lawn happier. So go ahead, give it a try and see how it can take your lawn care game to the next level. Happy fertilizing!
