Picking Out Fertilizer. 1  1. Know your grass. The type of grass you have will determine what type of fertilizer you need to use, and how often you need to fertilize. 2  2. Do a pH soil test. This measures the alkalinity or acidity of the soil, and helps to determine what pH your fertilizer should have. 3  3. Measure your lawn.
Many homeowners are trying out organic lawn care practices. Using compost to fertilize turf is one option for earth-friendly lawn care. The nitrogen that compost supplies to a lawn becomes available to grass roots slowly, which helps avoid heavy nitrogen leaching.
