    I need to fertilize my lawn play space areas at a childcare facility.
    A

    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.

    Q
    Can I use Chapin Wet/Dry Hose-End Sprayer to apply CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe product over 1000 sq. ft. of lawn?
    If yes how much should I put in jar, and what should be the sprayer setting.
    A

    CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe can be applied with the Chapin Wet/Dry Hose-End sprayer. The mixing ratio for  CoRon 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe for most applications is 22 oz. per 1000 sq. ft. To calculate the Chapin Liquid Hose End Sprayer settings, please see the following instructions:

    Instructions For The Liquid Side:

    The liquid side must always be used with a straw/diptube as this is a powerful and very accurate venturi system which draws liquid product through a small opening and mixes it with the water passing through.

    • 1. Remove lid and make sure straw is on the nipple on the bottom of the sprayer.

    YOU MUST HAVE A STRAW WHEN USING LIQUID PRODUCTS.

    • 2. The liquid side is unique but simple. It is designed to provide you with various quantities of properly mixed liquid for various size jobs. So, you must first select the number of liters/gallons of product for the area you want to spray.

     There are four selections:

    • 11 liters/3 gallons
    • 23 liters/6 gallons
    • 57 liters/15 gallons
    • 80 liters/21 gallons

    This means when you are out of product in the jar, you have sprayed the total liters/gallon of mixed product you have selected.

    • 3. After determining your needed liters/gallons quanitity, multiply the number of liters/gallons desired times the quanitity per liters/gallons recommended by the manufacturer. Pour this quantity directly into the jar.
    • 4. Fill the jar with water to the line that represents the total liters/gallons you want to spray.
    • 5. Turn selection knob to the desired liters/gallons of spray setting. DO NOT TURN WATER ON WHEN ADJUSTING SPRAY NOZZLE.
    • 6. Select desired spray pattern.
    • 7. Spray until empty.
    • 8. Let's say you want to make and spray 57 liters/15 gallons of properly mixed product. The manufacturers label tells you to use .25 milliliter per liter/one ounce per gallon, you pour 110 milliliters/15 ounces of product into the jar. Then you pour water into the jar until the combined liquid level reaches the 57 liter/15 gallon mark which is on the jar. Put sprayer on the jar and be sure dial is on the correct liter/gallon setting. When the sprayer is empty, you have sprayed 57 liters/15 gallons of properly mixed product.
    • 9. Clean sprayer and jar by rinsing jar and filling partially full of clean water and spraying until empty. If particles are stuck and exit hole is blocked, carefully poke needle or straight pin through hole in bottom of sprayer at each setting. Sometimes shaking the sprayer will suffice or the use of fast repetitive water burst (on-off).
    • 10. When the product selector knob is in the "OFF" position, you may use your LIQUID & CLOG FREE SPRAYER as a watering tool for your plants.

  • Asked by Alex from Hutto Tx
    03/23/2019
    Q
    How much CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% would I need for a 3500 sq ft Bermuda lawn? (I would be using a chapin hose end sprayer).
    A

    Generally speaking you would typically apply 22 ounces or so of CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5 in 2-5 gallons of water per 1000 square feet.  The specific amount of product is going to vary based on the type of grass you are treating, but generally 22 ounces per 1000 square feet is the average application. Please read the CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5 product label for more specific application rates.  CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5  can be applied with the Chapin wet/dry hose end sprayer. Be sure to check the label instructions for the correct calibrations.  You may have to apply more water after application since a hose end cannot spray more than a rate per gallon

    Q
    Is CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe a weed killer?
    I have thick weeds in my grass that l would like to kill. Do you think this will help?
    A

    CoRoN is a liquid fertilizer with the unique properties that fit turf, ornamental and horticultural feeding needs.  CoRoN is not an herbicide and will not aid in trying to treat for weeds.  Please refer to the product label if you have any other questions regarding what CoRoN can be used for.  We are happy to assist you with choosing an herbicide if you would like to provide us with additional information such as the target weeds, type of desirable turf, and size of the treatment area.

    Q
    Can I use CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe with a post emergent herbicide at the same time?
    A

    Yes, CoRon 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe can generally be applied at the same time as a post emergent. We would recommend checking the label of the herbicide to make sure there are no restractions or wait times for fertilizers.

    Q
    What number fertilizer would you suggest for Tall Fescue?
    Asked this yesterday, never got an answer. I'll try again.

    We only just recently started carrying fertilizers so are still learning about them.  The one liquid fertilizer we carry is the CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5 FE.  We also carry the Ferti-Lome Weed-Out Plus Lawn Fertilizer 25-0-4 which would be a good choice if you also needed weed control.

  • Asked by Chad from Reidsville, Nc
    04/24/2018
    Q
    How many gallons of CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe do I need to treat 1 Acres of tall fescue?
    I have 2ac, how many gallons will I need to cover my Fescue yard? Also, How much CoRoN do I put for 40 gal sprayer?
    A

    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.

  • Asked by Gueorgui from Eau Claire, Wi
    08/05/2016
    Q
    Would you recommend using Coron 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe before overseeding my cool grass mixture, or would it be too strong?
    My soil has enough P and K. Needs only N
    A

    Coron 18-3-6 Plus 0.35% Fe is labeled for cool season grasses so this could not be too strong. However, it does have the phosphorus and potassium in it as well although small amounts. You could use the Coron 28-0-0 Liquid Fertilizer and just get the nitrogen that is needed without the other two,

    A

    This is not unusual with CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% per the manufacturer.  The nitrogen is still good and the product should still be usable.  The Fe can precipitate out over time.  They have see that that happen before and had the liquid portion tested and it was still above the guaranteed analysis.

  • Asked by Carolyn from Ks
    04/02/2021
    Q
    How much CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% should I use on cool season grass per acre?
    A

    For CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% on cool season grasses, you should be using 3.75-4.25 lbs of nitrogen per 1000 sq/ft per year. Many customers break down their fertilizer applications into 6-8 applications per year throughout the growing season. If we go with 6 times a year and a desired rate of 4 lbs of nitrogen per 1000 sq/ft per year, you would be looking at roughly 45 oz per 1000 sq/ft per each of the 6 applications. You typically use 1-2 gallons of water per 1000 sq/ft.
