    How Does Vigoro Weed and Feed Plus Lawn Fertilizer Work?

    The fertilizer contains a blend of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium — essential nutrients that help to promote healthy plant growth. It also contains a pre-emergent herbicide that prevents new weeds from sprouting while killing existing weeds like dandelion, clover, and chickweed.

    The key feature of this product is its ASSURANCE Particle Technology. It helps to distribute more particles per square foot for even feeding and greening of the lawn with no burning guaranteed. This fertilizer also contains time-released nitrogen for extended feeding that lasts up to two months.

    How to Apply Vigoro Weed and Feed Plus Lawn Fertilizer

    Before using Vigoro Weed and Feed Plus Lawn Fertilizer, mow your lawn and remove any debris or weeds. Also, you’ll need to water the lawn a few days before application so the soil is moist.

    The recommended application rate is 3.3 lbs per 1,000 square feet of lawn. You can apply the fertilizer using a broadcast spreader, making sure to overlap each pass slightly to ensure even coverage. The best time to apply it is in the morning when the grass is wet with dew, so it sticks to the leaves better. 

    Vigoro Weed and Feed Plus Lawn Fertilizer contains chemicals that can be harmful if ingested, so keep children and pets away from the treated area until it has dried. Wear protective clothing, including gloves, long-sleeved shirts, and pants, while handling the product.

    It’s best to avoid applying the fertilizer on windy days to prevent the product from drifting onto nearby plants, causing damage. If it does come into contact with desirable plants, immediately rinse the area with water to reduce the chance of damage.
