Appreciate Grant’s reply but I would still like someone from a scientific background tell me that fertilizing the lawn and staying within the law does ANY harm to the lake. My understanding from the folks in conservation that provided I stay 25 feet away and use a slow release fertilizer I am doing NO HARM to that lake whatsoever. If the conservation department folks are wrong can someone give me some evidence? People are just bashing lawns with the occasional McMansion shot mixed in. Then again what fun would the forum be if people backed up their opinions with facts?
