Tools Needed

To apply Nitrophos Superturf Fertilizer, you will need either a hand or a push spreader.

We recommend using a push rotary (broadcast) spreader to ensure you get even coverage over the turf. You will also need a scale to help you measure the correct amount of fertilizer in pounds and a measuring tool to measure your turf area.

How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much Nitrophos Superturf Fertilizer to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. Find the square footage by measuring the treatment areas' length and width in feet, then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). The application rate for Nitro-Phos Superturf Fertilizer is 5 pounds per 1,000 square feet. For example, if your turf area measures 1,600 sq. ft., you will need 8 pounds of fertilizer (5 lbs. x 1.6 sq. ft. = 8 lbs.) Be sure your spreader is calibrated correctly. Refer to the label for calibration settings for most spreader types.
• Step 2: Before applying, be sure to mow the turf area 1 or 2 days beforehand and that the turf is dry. This will help the fertilizer granules fall into the soil.
• Step 3: Load your spreader with the correct amount of fertilizer to treat your measured turf area. Start applying by walking around the perimeter of your turf area, being careful to minimize fertilizer being thrown onto concrete or non-turf areas. Once you have completed your perimeter application, continue your application by walking down the length of your turf area in a back-and-forth motion. Leave about 3 feet of space between each pass so that the fertilizer is broadcast to the wheel marks of your previous pass. This will ensure even coverage.
• Step 4: Water the lawn after application so that the granules are washed off the grass blades and down to the soil. To ensure a thorough watering, use at least an inch of water. You can also time your application at least 24 hours before rainfall.
