What Lawn Fertilizer Do AI Models Recommend for Suburban homeowner who maintains my own quarter-acre lawn on weekends (2026)?

Key Takeaway

Scotts owns this category outright. It is named in all twelve responses and leads eight of them, including the explicit ranking prompt in three of four engines. That position is unchanged from last week. All of the movement is underneath it. Milorganite now holds second place in three of four engines and took the top slot on the Claude ranking prompt and the Perplexity budget prompt. Lesco went from four mentions to zero, a complete exit for a brand this tracker called a climber ten days ago. Pennington slipped to five mentions and now leans on ChatGPT, where it still holds a top-three slot, for most of its remaining visibility.
