    Q
    Is the The Anderson's Fertilizer 18-24-12 48% NS-54 a DG formulation that breaks down with water?
    A

    Andersons Fertilizer 18-24-12 48% NS-54 is a granular product that is applied using a broadcast granular spreader. This is not a WDG formulation fertilizer.

    Like most granular products it must be irrigated, or watered-in, after application in order for the active ingredients that are coating each granule to be released onto your lawn.  

    A herbicide that has a WDG, or water dispersible granule is a finely granulated formulation that dissolves or disperses when added to water in a spray tank to give fine particle suspension, and is applied as a spray application.

  • Asked by Rob from Slc, Ut

    Q
    Whats the ideal time to use The Anderson's Fertilizer 18-24-12 48% NS-54 after applying a granular Herbicide?
    Just applied a spring application of a granular herbicide g2, when is the recommended wait time to apply Andersons fertilizer.
    A

    Your local extension office can recommend the best time to fertilize based on your local climate and soil-type. Generally, cool season turf is fertilized in mid-September, in November, in March, and in late-April. Do not fertilize once the weather warms for the spring and summer (after mid-May).  It is recommended to wait one week in between applications of your post emergent and then your fertilizer like The Anderson's Fertilizer 18-24-12 48% NS-54, to let your grass recover from your post emergent application.  There is no time restriction between a pre-emergent and fertilizer.
