Andy follow up question

I couldn't use nitrogen in sept because I over seeded and didn't want top growth. My question is I have to put my lime down and last fall fert app. Is it too late for the Nitrogen since frost has hit already?

Also should I up the does of N from the 1#/1k for my last app or keep as it? I will wait the two weeks in between the applications.

Would you recommend Lime first or Urea?

Thanks!

Frost means nothing - it is merely a sign-post for the slowing down to growth.

In NH, I'd do my Lime ASAP and then (hopefully 2 weeks later) the Winterizing app.

Then enjoy an adult-beverage and call it a season. Maybe have two.

Thanks Andy!

On the winterizing app what rate of Urea do you recommend

Read the "Mid-Fall/The Pause" and "Late Fall/Winterizing" sections on the first page (no need to read all 57 pages!!) of the Fall Nitrogen Regimens thread for background and details.
