The Complete Guide to Bio-Stimulants for Lawn Care

Boost your lawn’s health from the ground up using bio-stimulants—natural products that improve soil biology, nutrient uptake, and overall turf resilience.

What Are Bio-Stimulants?

Bio-stimulants are not fertilizers. Instead, they are substances or micro-organisms that enhance natural soil processes, leading to better nutrient uptake, drought tolerance, and turf vigor.

“A bio-stimulant is a substance or micro-organism that stimulates natural processes to benefit nutrient uptake, efficiency, abiotic stress tolerance, or crop quality and yield.” – USDA

Why Bio-Stimulants Matter in Lawn Care

Unlike seasonal crops, your lawn stays year-round. That’s why soil health is critical. Bio-stimulants feed microbes, improve structure, and make nutrients more available—naturally.

Core Bio-Stimulants We Recommend

• Humic & Fulvic Acids: Improve soil structure and nutrient retention
• Sea Kelp: Boost root and shoot growth through natural hormones
• Molasses: Feed beneficial microbes with simple carbohydrates

Benefits of Bio-Stimulants

• Enhance fertilizer efficiency
• Support a healthy soil microbiome
• Improve drought and stress tolerance
• Boost turf color and thickness
