Espoma Turf-Tone Organic All-Season Lawn Food 14 lb — Slow-Release 9-0-1 with Iron & Bio-Tone Microbes

Espoma Turf-Tone combines a slow-release nitrogen formula (9-0-1), supplemental iron, and the brand’s Bio-Tone beneficial microbes to nourish lawns from the soil up. This 14 lb bag covers up to 2,500 sq. ft., spreads easily with a drop or broadcast spreader, and is formulated for a wide range of grasses including fescue, bluegrass, rye, St. Augustine, and zoysia. Made in the USA and crafted by a family-owned company rooted in organic gardening, Turf-Tone aims to strengthen roots, improve color, and reduce the need for frequent feedings.

How does this lawn food feed my grass all season?

Espoma Turf-Tone uses slow-release organic nitrogen that provides steady nutrition over weeks rather than a quick burst. That gradual supply encourages sustained growth, richer color, and fewer application cycles through spring, summer, and fall.

• Slow-release 9-0-1 nitrogen for extended feeding.
• Added iron to enhance deep green color without excessive growth spurts.
• Bio-Tone beneficial microbes to support root activity and soil biology.
• Suitable for multiple grass types and seasonal use.

Will it harm my lawn, kids, or pets?

Turf-Tone is formulated from organic and natural ingredients without sludges or harsh chemical fillers, so it’s less likely to burn turf when applied according to instructions. Its makeup also reduces the chance of nutrient leaching versus many synthetic alternatives, making it a safer option for households with children and pets.

• Organic ingredients minimize burn risk when used as directed.
• No harsh chemical fillers or sludge-based components.
• Reduced leaching potential compared with some synthetic fertilizers.
• Follow label directions for safe re-entry and watering guidance.

How do I apply it and how much area does one bag cover?

Apply Turf-Tone to a dry, mowed lawn using a drop or broadcast spreader for even distribution. A 14 lb bag covers up to 2,500 square feet, and routine applications as seasonally recommended will help maintain results while reducing how often you need to mow and feed.

• Use a spreader and apply to a dry, recently mowed lawn for best coverage.
• 14 lb bag treats approximately 2,500 sq. ft.; adjust rate based on label instructions.
• Works on new and established lawns—follow scheduling guidance for seasonal use.
• Water in lightly if advised on the package to activate nutrients and microbes.

What makes Espoma’s Bio-Tone formula beneficial for soil and roots?

Bio-Tone adds a blend of beneficial microorganisms that support nutrient uptake and root health, helping your lawn access nutrients more efficiently. These microbes work with organic materials in the product to build a more resilient soil environment over time.

• Microbial support enhances root nutrient access and vigor.
• Helps improve soil structure and biological activity gradually.
• Complements organic nutrient sources for long-term soil health.
• Contributes to stronger root systems that tolerate stress better.
