lawn food

Turf growth booster

Lawn food is fertilizer formulated specifically for grass, typically containing nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium to promote healthy growth and green color.

The term appears on consumer products and in gardening advice: I need to pick up some lawn food before the weekend.

It's a friendlier, less technical alternative to "lawn fertilizer."
