The ferti·lome® Centipede Lawn Fertilizer 15-0-15 is a high-quality fertilizer developed to suit centipede lawns. Its special 15-0-15 nutrient content gives centipede grass the necessary elements it requires to grow. But it does not risk over-fertilization. It comes in an portable16-pound bag, which enables it to promote lush green growth, boost resilience, and enhance the long-term health of the lawn.
Centipede Grass Needs Special Care
Centipede grass is a low-maintenance, warm-season grass that is densely covered and inherently resistant to pests. Yet it needs a fine balance of nutrients and does not respond well to over-fertilization. Too much nitrogen or phosphorus may be worse than nothing.
To address such special needs, the fertilome 15-0-15 formulation would provide the proper level of nitrogen and potassium but none of phosphorus, which would keep the grass healthy, uniform, and attractive.
Nutrient Profile
All the nutrients in the 15-0-15 formula are carefully selected with the specific purpose of making centipede grass stronger.
- Nitrogen (15%): Nitrogen aids in the production of chlorophyll and also helps the grass attain a uniform green shade. The 15 percent level of nitrogen measured inhibits excess and overstimulation of thatch.
- Phosphorus (0%): Phosphorus is not needed by established centipede lawns and therefore does not feature in the formula at all. This guards against the accumulation of nutrients, which may damage centipede grass.
- Potassium (15%): Potassium enhances root strength, stress resistance, and resistance to diseases. Centipede lawns are tough to drought, heat, and cold because of the 15 percent potassium content.

Application Guide
This fertilizer can give the desired results only when used properly.
- Timing: Fertilizer may be applied at any time of the year, but the active growth season should be late spring to early fall. It should not be used in the dormant seasons or when the grass is stressed.
- Frequency: To ensure the results are consistent, the fertilizer can be applied at a 6-8-week interval during the growing season.
- Procedure: It is suggested to use a broadcast spreader in order to even the distribution. Light watering after application assists nutrients in getting into the soil and getting down to the roots.
- Coverage: Each bag of 16 pounds will cover a medium- to large-sized lawn. Precise coverage is contingent on the rates of application..
