Tools Needed
To apply Ferti-Lome Centipede Lawn Fertilizer 15-0-15, you will need to broadcast the product with a push spreader or hand spreader. It is also helpful to have a scale and bucket to measure out how much product you need based on your treatment area.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much Ferti-Lome Centipede Lawn Fertilizer 15-0-15 to use by calculating the square footage of the treatment area. To find the square footage, you will measure in feet and multiply the length and width of the treatment area (length X width = square footage). The application rate of this product is 4 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. If your turf does not exactly measure an even 1,000 sq ft. then you will convert the treatment areas square footage into a decimal form and then multiply it by the recommended rate (4 lbs.). For example, if you have a 1,600 sq. ft. treatment area, then you will need 6.4 lbs. of fertilizer (4 lbs. X 1.6 sq. ft. = 6.4 lbs. of product to use).
- Step 2: Load your spreader with the appropriate amount of Ferti-Lome Centipede Lawn Fertilizer 15-0-15 and put the spreader on the correct setting for your specific spreader model (check the label for details). If you are unsure which setting to use with your spreader, you can test your spreader settings on 250 sq. ft. of turf. You are aiming to apply at a rate of 1 pound of product per 250 sq. ft., so adjust your settings until this rate is reached. When applying start by walking a straight line around the perimeter of your treatment area then towards the middle until you have complete coverage, being careful to minimize the fertilizer being thrown onto concrete or non-turf areas.
- Step 3: Lightly water your treatment area after application to ensure the fertilizer activates and soaks into the soil. You will want to apply an inch of water to avoid washing the product off your lawn and to provide a thorough watering.

While this is ideal for a greener, lush lawn it is not the best for cement surfaces such as driveways, sidewalks, or cement lawn fixtures.
