    Holy Cow!! I used your concoction last night 31MAY and today 01JUN.. Deep dark lush green. Use a total of 20 oz or 1.25 lbs AMS and 16 ounces Liquid Iron over 4,000 sqft... WOW... Unbelievable -I'm hooked brother.. Running out to buy more!!!

    Really appreciate the videos. Trying to get my lawn back in shape and am new to applying fertilizer . Just a couple of questions , after applying ammonium sulfate and humic acid you do water in ? And do water in after applying Sea k ? Could you clarify watering in. I'm really new to this .Thanks

      Thanks for the quick reply ! Info online is all over the place .Alot of videos don't mention watering in at all. Some say wait 24 hours some say right after applying . It's confusing if you're just starting out.

    Love your video. My question is about pounds on the ground. Since it is 21-0-0 and 50lb bag wouldn’t it take 2lb to get the .21 N on the ground? I have always thought it was 21% in the bag not per pound

    • @TheLawnMentor
      @TheLawnMentor  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The 21% is a ratio of how much N exists in any given sample of the enclosed product - it’s not unique to the bag size. So 1lbs of the full product will consist of 21% N (0.21lbs of Nitrogen)

    My AMS granules are much larger than yours. You think they’d dissolve in water easily or is it not worth it?

    • @TheLawnMentor
      @TheLawnMentor  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If it’s not coated in anything, they’ll dissolve. Use warm water and just agitate for a good bit. Also use the screen/filter that may have come with your sprayer to make sure you don’t dump chunks in there. I buy the spray grade stuff to make this process easier, but larger prills will dissolve. Urea is typically larger and just requires warm water and a little more mixing. Worth it for the money and lasting color if you ask me!

    Yeah we like the metal soundtrack. I’ve been chucking sulphate of ammonia on the lawns for 35 years as granules and watering it in. Still learning obviously 😂. So, are you saying I don’t need to water the knapsack liquid application in afterwards; I think you are; I’m just checking. There’s no danger of it burning ??? Promise me 😊 I won’t sue you because I’m in uk. Well, probably won’t 😮

    The trick is not have sprayer with a larger hole. :) The real trick is to not pour too soon after mixing with the drill paddle. IE, don't pour if the water is still spinning around the bucket.
