Re: Bad news regarding Bay State Fertilizer
I just made the trip up today for a ton pallet.
Easynpeasy, though I did reserve/pay late March when they had inventory. Kim told me it would probably be June when they have more stock.

Bryan K Soil Sample Spring 2021
Here are the results of my recent soil analysis. Please focus on the Front as this is the main lawn of focus. If time permits, analysis of the side/back would be great. The front yard received a full renovation in the Fall of 2019 after several years of neglect. It is ~13K sqft, moderately sloped, s...

Source for Urea or AS in CT?
Hello All,
I"m in Southwestern CT, and my Site One only has 28-0-3.
Does anyone know where I can source Urea or AS in the local area?
Online is doable, but with shipping it negates the cost savings of using the synthetics...

Re: Bryan K Soil Sample Spring 2020
Hi Andy, Just curious about how long I to the season I should continue the urea. I’ve been at 1lb/k urea every 2 weeks. Things seems to be getting a bit orange where the dogs have been helping with the fertilizer. Shouldn’t lay off on the urea, wait a while and then switch over to a slower/milder N ...

Re: Zebra Stripes
I’m gonna get a good look at the spinner in action. The stripes seem too narrow to be overlap from adjacent passes. It’s almost like it’s dumping straight out without being broadcast.

Zebra Stripes
Hi All,
I have some dark green zebra stripes.
I applied iron about a week ago and urea 2 weeks ago.
I"m guessing my Scotts rotary spreader is not broadcasting corectly?
Any suggestions as to how to assess the cause and remedy?
Thanks,
Bryan

Mowed and applied 2lb/k glutamate and also had all the gardens cleaned, edges cut, and mulched. With the isolation from Covid its nice to have things starting to look good outside.
