Plants depend on the availability of 18 nutrients from air, in water, and within soil. Air and water are sources of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Needed in large amounts within the soil are the macronutrients: nitogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sulfur. Needed in lesser amounts within the soil are micronutrients such as boron, chlorine, cobalt, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum, and zinc. Any of the nutrients can be lacking. But most often problem soils lack nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. These three nutrients are the focus of commercial fertilizers. For nitrogen is responsible for proper growth; phosphorus for proper rooting, seeding, and fruiting; and potassium for overall plant health.
When used correctly, yes.
Natural grass fertilizer is spread along the soil in which grass is to grow. It provides vitamins and nutrients for the grass.

I do it all the time. You can actually buy fertilizer, grass seed and mulch mix all in one bag.
Mulching the grass can double as a fertilizer.
No. If the grass is dead it's dead.
1.) Form a Question. Why is my grass not growing? 2.) Research Grass needs water and nutrients to grow. 3.) Formulate a hypothesis. Add fertilizer to my grass and it will become greener and taller. 4.) Experiment Half of my lawn I will add fertilizer, and the other half I will leave the same. 5.) Observe. The half with fertilizer is 3 shades greener than the side without. 6.) Draw Conclusions. Adding fertilizer to your yard could help make it greener and taller. 7.) Tell. Post your findings online.
Fertilizer in essense, is manure. Manure can come in all forms. Manure is used to fertilize your grass and plants so your grass and plants can grow prosperous.
Grass fertilization should be done in spring or fall. It is preferable to spread fertilizer before a rain so that it soaks into the soil.
water and fertilizer
Fertilizer should be applied before rain. Fertilizer should always be watered into the soil or it can cause burning to the grass or plants.
You should do this the other way around ... mow it first then apply the fertilizer. Otherwise you are just putting all that fertilizer into the grass catcher of the mower.
