The product label of Ferti-Lome Broadleaf Weed Control with Gallery does not state a specific setting for your spreader. Please take a moment to watch our How to Use a Spreader - Correct Lawn Spreader Settings video for instructions on how to calibrate your spreader setting on your own. You may also try using the Scotts Spreader Tool to help find the correct setting, or you may reach out to the manufacturer of your spreader (Scotts) at (888) 270-3714 for more information.
Due to how many thousands of different spreader types and granulated products such as Ferti-Lome Broadleaf Weed Control with Gallery there are on the market, there are no master lists that allow us to know the spreader settings for each individual spreader and product used. The best thing to do to make sure you get the results you need from the product is to place the amount for 1000 sq/ft into your spreader and choose a setting somewhere in the middle or a notch or two below that. Walk a 1000 sq/ft area and note how much is being dispersed as you go. If you find the product is being put out too quickly and you feel you will run out before you cover the whole area, you can move the setting to a smaller option. If the opposite is happening and you find you have lots of product still in your spreader after you've covered 1000 sq/ft, you can move the setting up to release more product at a time. We also have a handy video showing how to calibrate your spreader.
Unfortunately, we do not have the spreader settings for that specific combo and the manufacturer does not list that spreader on their bag of Ferti-Lome Broadleaf Weed Control with Gallery. Due to there being thousands of granules on the market and just as many different types of spreaders, you will want to calibrate your spreader to the product you are using and its application rates. You can see a short video on how to accomplish this below.
