About

Potassium deficiency in lawn grasses is identified by wilting grass leaves and yellowing of the tips of older grass leaves.

Potassium encourages grass rooting and drought tolerance by improving leaf strength, improving water absorbtion and retention plus the resistance to heat. It is also important in disease resistance particularly to fungal disease such as fusarium and dollar spot.
