In general, you should keep children off of any treatment areas until the application of CoRon 18-3-6 or any other lawn care product is completely dry (this may be 1-3 hours depending on sunlight, moisture, and temperature). Be sure that any product you are using is approved for use by the facility’s governing board.
The NC State Extension guide for fertilizing tall fescue recommends using 1 lb of Nitrogen per 1,000 sq ft per application, done 3 times per year in February, September, and October. By that recommendation, you would use 67.0 oz of CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe per 1,000 sq ft, per application. So to apply to 2 Acres (87,120 sq ft), you would need 5,837 oz of the CoRon, or 19 of the 2.5 gal jugs for 1 application to get 1 lb of N per 1,000 sq ft.
You should use at least 2 to 5 gallons of water per 1,000 sq ft, so you would first need to calibrate how much area your 40 gal sprayer treats at your speed before knowing how much product to use in each tank.
