Liquid Fertilizer Vs Dry Fertilizer Debate

fertilizer-spreader-yardivThe liquid Vs dry fertilizer debate.-Which one is right for you?

One of the biggest questions/concerns to homeowners is whether to continue to us granular (dry) fertilizer or to try a liquid fertilizer.  In an article found at Lawn & Landscape, an owner of a large landscaping business address that very subject.  You can read the original article, Choosing the right fertilizer at the Lawn & Landscaping website.  One of the biggest points made in relation to customers using dry fertilizer over the liquid fertilizer was cost.  The cost of having a truck come out and spray the liquid fertilizer has a bigger price tag than using dry fertilizer.  Though there are certain advantages to that method, one being a very quick result, the YardIV fertigation system removes that large initial cost.  With a YardIV tank installed to you existing lawn irrigation system you can enjoy the a lush and healthy lawn at a cost that is comparable to using dry fertilizer, but your outcome will more than  exceed what you can see using dry fertilizer.  If you don’t have and existing irrigation or drip system installed you can still have a landscaping company come spray our liquid fertilizer, Empac7, onto your lawn and if you would like to continue to use dry or Granular fertilizer then go right ahead.  That’s right, you can use both due to YardIV, in conjunction with Empac7, feeding your lawn with nutrients that don’t exist in most dry fertilizers.  They are compatible, and many customers use a blended mixture to get the result they are looking for.  Now this is where we veer off from the original article.  Cost comparisons were related directly to using a liquid fertilizer Vs. a dry one.  Solely using Empac7 distributed by the YardIV fertigation system will reduce your water bill up to 40% depending on your location and soil health.  On average most see a 10% reduction in their water bill.  With YardIV consistently feeding your lawn with Empac7 your lawn becomes healthier and therefore needs less water.

When you look at the original articles points for each type of fertilizer it really becomes difficult for dry (granular) fertilizer to make its own case.  Cost was it’s main attraction along with granular offering a slow release when needed, especially during the summer and fall.  Now, YardIV can replace the need to use dry fertilizer for that reason.  No Mess, no planning, just fill and enjoy the best looking and healthiest yard you’ve ever experienced.
