      The best one is organic, but it's just as important to give the grass what it needs. Test your soil then pick the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium that fits it. My grass is high in phosphorus and low in potassium, so I use a 16-0-8. Your lawn might be low in phosphorus and high in potassium, so maybe a 16-4-0 would work.
