No, not unless you are literally smothering the grass.. The soil microbes must eat protein fertilizer before the grass gets any benefit. With an organic program, nothing goes to waste and nothing is washed away.

Golf Shoes for Your Lawn? Yeah. Try It.
I personally know a man who lives in Bellwood PA. He walks on his lawn atleast once a month with regular golf shoes. The spikes in the golf shoes act as an aeration device. They poke small holes the soil and allow water and oxygen to enter the root system of the grass. Give this a try monthly, or let us aerate your lawn and watch the difference appear in only weeks. You will have a lawn greener than all of your neighbores.
Home Made Fertilizer
Simple solution.
Take 2 cups of water, 1 cup of beer, 1 cup of amonia, and 1/2 cup of epsom salt. Mix this together in a spray bottle of some sort and go out and spray your lawn.
The water won’t do much but equal out the mixture, the amount of water applied really doesn’t help anything.
The beer will feed the root systems.
The amonia will kill and diseases that are living on the grass.
The epsom salt will work as an aerator and help the water penatrate the soil.
Spray this on your lawn and in a couple of weeks your should notice an improvement!
