Fall is the best time of year to fertilize Colorado's bluegrass lawns. Promotions about "lawn winterization" may sound mysterious, but there's nothing magical about it. Simply fertilize with nitrogen sometime during late September to early November along the Front Range, and earlier in the mountains. For more information please see PlantTalk script 1523, Fall lawn fertilization.
