Because lawns are all about lush green growth, they need a lot of nitrogen so it's best to use a fertilizer with a higher first number in the formulation. A fertilizer with an NPK ratio of 3-1-2 or 4-1-2 is great for most lawns. The best NPK for trees and shrubs. A fertilizer with an NPK ratio of 2-1-1 or 3-1-1 works for most trees and shrubs.
The value of fertilizer nutrients can represent 25% to 40% of crop production costs. Knowing how to calculate the value of the major plant nutrients – nitrogen (N), phosphate (P 2 O 5) and potash (K 2 O) – can be very useful. This is easy to do when we know the cost and nutrient content of the fertilizer.

Although nitrogen is the most abundant element in the air we breathe, that form of nitrogen cannot be used by plants. Nitrogen contained in fertilizer, on the other hand, is readily taken up by plants. In this experiment, you will compare plants grown without nitrogen fertilizer to plants grown with nitrogen fertilizer.
