When to apply Sunbelt Nutrients

Apply Sunbelt Nutrients in spring when daily average temps consistently hold above the range for your grass type:

  • Cool-season grasses require temperatures above 40-49° F.
  • Warm-season grasses need temps above 60-69° F.

Apply when grass is actively growing and isn't stressed.

How to apply Sunbelt Nutrients with custom plans

For best results, apply it before all custom lawn plan fertilizer applications.

If you miss applying it before your first My Plan application, don't worry. Apply Sunbelt Nutrients at least 7 days after your first dated application.
