Lawn Applications
For new lawns, plant 1-2 lbs. of seed per 1,000 sq. ft.
For lawn fertilization, apply 5-10 lbs. of 16-04-08 slow release fertilizer per 1,000 sq. ft., four times a year (late Spring, mid-Summer, late Summer, and early Fall) for the first two years. Apply 5 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. two times (mid-Summer, and late Summer) a year after a fully-established lawn has been accomplished.
Pasture Applications
For new pastures, plant 15-30 lbs. of seed per acre. For erosion areas, plant 25-50 lbs. per acre.
For pasture fertilization, apply 250-350 lbs. of 16-04-08 slow release fertilizer per acre, three times a year (late Spring, mid-Summer, and early Fall). Animals that are grazing will damage the Bermuda grass if the pasture is not properly fertilized annually. The grass must be provided with adequate nutrients to compete with the animals.
