I’ve seen randy Lemmon’s guide recommended several times on here but I have trouble finding fertilizer with the 3:1:2 ratio. Most products with this ratio seemed to be geared towards plants/flowers. Anywhere in particular that carries this ratio lawn fertilizer?

Site One, Ewing Irrigarion Supply.

But seriously unless you’re needing to push growth with a ton of N, just use Milo once a month.

15-5-10 at Home Depot



ETA: I live in TX, so this might be geared toward the area.

I’ve used 16-4-8 which I found at the local feed store. The 15-5-10 is pretty much nonexistent in Louisiana from my search.

I like to put a complete on first app. 13-13-13 then hit just some A Nitrate.

3:1:2 is for plants in general, esp. fruits, vegetables and ornamentals. Lawns like higher nitrogen, the first number in an analysis. 3:1:2 is okay, but higher N is better and very little P needed.
