Default Just fertilized - water now, or OK to wait?

Hello, just applied Scotts Fertilizer with Weed Control. The directions
say I should see improvement "in 1-2 days. At that a time a thorough
watering should be made".

It's been 2 days, and rain is predicted in 3. Do you think it's safe to
wait untik then for water, or should I water now?

Your approximate location and application rate would help immensely.

I am in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I applied it per directions at 5.5 on
the push-behind rectangular spreader.

We got 6-8 inches of rain the day before I applied the fertilizer. Soil
is very sandy, according to longtime residents.

I think you'll be fine. If you have a problem it will probably be on the
corners where you may accidentally over apply. However, you would have to go
quite heavy to have a problem at this time of year.
