22-0-0 will put down the same nitrogen as 33-0-0, if you put it down heavier.



22-0-0:
1÷.22= 4.55 lbs of fertilizer needed to apply 1lb of N per 1000sqft

33-0-0
1÷.33= 3.03 lbs of fertilizer needed to apply 1lb of N per 1000sqft

If I am able to find 33-0-0 would it be slow release? I honestly thought of going and getting Scott’s 32-0-10 because it advertises slow release. I just don’t want to burn the lawn up.

Wouldn't have to be slow release, just remember not to go over 1.5 lbs (2 at MOST) of N per growing season on centipede. Also, don't apply when there is dew still on the foliage.

Yes I’ll use my sprinkler system and water in immediately after putting it down. I guess I need to wait until the yard isn’t wet to put it down?
