. .. What's a good liquid
lawn fertilizer I can spray on? Also, I'd like to
be able to buy it in bulk. Sources would be appreciated.


Never use chemicals on your lawn.

I use a product called Dillo Dirt. Completely natural and ph balanced.
You only put it on in the spring and about 1/2 as much in the fall. For a
2000sf yard about 400 lbs. Just sprinkle around with a shovel. I always
have
the best looking yard. This way you don't have to worry about
poisoning
the ground water and the critters that live in your yard.


Yeah, I've been wondering why I have dead squirrels and deer laying
all over my lawn. Must have been that bag of fertilizer. Must be
real convenient using Dillo Dirt. Only 400lbs for 2000sf? Let's
see, I'd only need a ton of it to do my lawn. I'll go down to the
home center with my car this morning and get some, instead of a 40lb
bag of Scotts.


Ignorance is bliss



Please read up on fertilizers

Here's a start:http://www.spring-earth.com/faq.html

By the way. For large tracts of land you need a manuer spreader. They come
is all shapes sizes and prices. For large tracts of land it's a must have.


Who's talking about large tracts of land? I only pointed out that I
can easily apply 40lbs of regular fertilizer to my 10,000 sqft lawn
easily. I do it with a simple broadcast spreader in 15 mins. Now
with your Dildo Dirt, I'd have a ton of material to deal with and no
easy and practical way to apply it.



Scott's = Death-


This is where guys like you lose all credibility. You have no sense
of balance or what is practical. You take everything to the
extreme.
