RECOMMENDATIONS:
Use a rotary type spreader for best results.
Apply in two different directions to avoid streaking from
overlaps or missed areas. Apply water to turfgrass
immediately after application of granular fertilizer.
NOTE: Analysis numbers (N-P-K) for fertilizers are
approximate guidelines. Similar N-P-K ratios can
be substituted.
