    Hello, nice video👍.
    It would be possible to apply fertilizer and seed to it with the spreader to restore the lawn which has weeds and several dry areas with very little volume of grass. I have never worked with grasses and I don't know if after putting seed to make the grass grow if I can also put fertilizer to prevent weed. The grass type is Fecue and the date is 4/22/24, I'm in NC

    Only concern with the Flagship is that the amount applied to the lawn appears low due to coverage in the bag. Used to a product you can easily see getting dispersed with a greater volume. In other words, it’s quite concentrated based on the lbs. per bag and coverage in square feet.

    • @TheLawnWhisperer
      @TheLawnWhisperer  3 роки тому +1

      You mean you’re used to milorganite? Most (almost all) fertilizers are generally 3 pounds per 1,000 square feet gets you .75lb of N. You can still see this fertilizer coming out of the spreader even at 2 pounds per 1,000 due to the color
