Pre-Ban 40-0-0 Controlled-Release Nitrogen Fertilizer

Pre-Ban 40-0-0 is a premium, long-duration nitrogen fertilizer designed to deliver consistent feeding through hot summer months using advanced controlled-release technology. It provides a full 2 pounds of nitrogen per 1,000 square feet over a 120-day release cycle, making it ideal for homeowners who want long-lasting green color without frequent reapplication.

• 40-0-0 nitrogen-only fertilizer
• Provides 4 months (120 days) of feeding
• Delivers 2 lbs nitrogen per 1,000 sq ft
• 100% controlled-release nitrogen

Pre-Ban was engineered to meet University of Florida Best Management Practices and is especially valuable for lawns affected by seasonal nitrogen blackout restrictions, such as those in Florida. When applied ahead of restricted periods, it continues feeding turf safely and evenly for up to four months.

Outside of blackout zones, Pre-Ban is ideal for DIY homeowners who want a low-maintenance, season-long nitrogen solution. Its controlled-release blend prevents burn while supporting steady growth, color, and turf density.
