If you have partially filled bags and boxes of fertilizer in your garage or garden shed, there is no need to throw it away. Even though the almost-dissolved label reads “Azalea/Camellia Food”, your fescue lawn will appreciate having some next month.

Even though the houseplant fertilizer bag is filled with blue goo, you can still dissolve it in a water bucket and sprinkle it over your pansies now. Fertilizer does not “go bad”. If yours is lumpy, use a hammer to beat it into granules and have it ready for springtime.
