Frustrated with my local supplier

Post by tlinden » October 8th, 2016, 9:32 am

I went to get some 46-0-0 from my local guys, I really like them so I won't name names. But they were out of stock. So a week passes and I called up, still out of stock. I asked when they'd get more. SPRING! :banghead:

Do they not even know about the aggressive fall fertilizer program!?

Or could it be that everyone else in your area knows about the fall fertilizer program so it just ran out?

Nah he said they sell it in the spring. I'm guessing the local landscapers buy up in the spring and have enough for the year. Either way, it's odd they don't just order more.

If you're looking for an alternate supplier with 46-0-0, for those in the northeastern USA, most Agway retailers carry urea in 50# bags. Phone calls to a few near you will hopefully turn some up if you're still in need.
