The BEST Summer Lawn FERTILIZER // SPOON FEEDING with FloraGreene

We have released several videos this season showing how to use 4-0-2 FloraGreene with plants, trees, shrubs, gardens, ornamental flowers... etc. However, 4-0-2 FloraGreene is an excellent fertilizer for spoon feeding your lawn during those hot summer months. In this video, Chuck from Dadding All Day shows his process for using 4-0-2 FloraGreene on the lawn.

4-0-2 FloraGreene™ Fertilizer is formulated to be a complete product for all varieties of landscape plants, ornamentals, tropicals, shrubs, and trees.
4-0-2 FloraGreene™ will absorb through leaf, stem, and cambium tissue and be distributed to the roots through the circulatory systems of plants, ornamentals, shrubs, and trees. While soil application is acceptable, it is formulated for foliar application.
Application rates of 4-0-2 are very low, these are suggested application rates based on use.
Lawns: Apply 9 oz per 1,000 square feet. For an added color pop, apply alongside the Bio Stim pack and 0-0-2 MicroGreen.
Healthy Trees: Apply at a rate of ½ ounce per caliper inch of the diameter at shoulder height. Dilute with water at a rate of 6 ounces per gallon. Spray the trunk of the tree up to a height of 6 feet or to the first fork. Apply two times per year in the spring and fall.
Sick or Diseased Trees: Apply at a rate of 1 ounce per caliper inch of diameter at should height. Dilute at a rate of 6 ounces per gallon of water. Spray the trunk of the tree up to the height of 6 feet or to the first fork. Apply every 30 days as needed.
Fruit Trees: Apply at ½ ounce per caliper inch of the diameter at shoulder height before fruit sets. Dilute at 6 ounces per gallon of water. Spray trunk to a height of 6 feet or to the first fork. No application after fruit sets.
Plants and Ornamentals: Apply at a rate of 6 ounces per 1,000 sq ft of bedding material. Dilute at a rate of 6 ounces per gallon of water; apply as a mist to foliage or as a soil drench at the base of the plant. Avoid direct contact with flower blooms to prevent staining.
Palms: Apply at a rate of 1 ounce per caliper inch of diameter at shoulder height. Dilute at a rate of 6 ounces per gallon of water. Apply as a soil drench at the base of the palm.
Potted Plants and Vegetables: Dilute at 1 ounce per gallon of water and apply weekly as a light soaking to the base of the plant. Avoid direct contact with flower blooms to prevent staining.
As you can see, application rates vary by tree size and scenario.

We have all have a preferred method. The 4-0-2 is great option as well. I love the 7-0-0 for my soil and weather climate. Good work Chuck.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

7-0-0 is great as well!

[@ammedsaavedra5296]

I prefer 9-0-1 GreeneStart in summer

[@LawnNOrder]

@@ammedsaavedra5296 I'll mix in some 9-0-1 as well.

[@LawnNOrder]

@@ammedsaavedra5296 I will also use 18-0-1, I covered them all in my spoon feed video

[@dewayneoverton466]

I’ve been spoon feeding with Green Effect all summer long. Its some good stuff as well.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Green Effect is fantastic for sure!

[@Legendary_UA]

Right here...getting my Chuck fix

[@NExtDIYLawn]

;) Yeah buddy!

[@greenuplawnworks2407]

I fed my lawn FloraGreene awhile back and some people lost their minds. Bah! The color I got out of it was amazing.

[@BrodeyDoverosx]

I guess they don’t like science? Plant fertilizer has tweaks that help plants more than grass but it’s mostly Tune for scaling to use in a garden.

[@DaddingAllDay]

The color is fantastic! I think I want to call it the “Classy Dark Combo”

[@minoutv7347]

Thanks for breaking down on how to do the math on this. I’m planning on using more liquids next season, so understanding how to do the math is most helpful!

[@NExtDIYLawn]

The math for liquids is definitely different, but once you do it the first time, it's easy.

[@LawnJourneys]

Great vid Chuck. I’m a N-Ext addict!

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Yes you are!

[@PacificNorthwestLawns]

Great job Chuck. FloraGreene is awsome stuff! 👍🏻

[@NExtDIYLawn]

It's highly underrated! The color response is amazing!

[@PacificNorthwestLawns]

N-Ext DIY Lawn I agree totally.

[@Aerialphotovito]

I like this idea Chuck

[@DaddingAllDay]

Vito Gassi Thanks Vitto!

[@johnkorth4048]

With a 30% of N you could use 1/8 the amount for probably 1/8th the price...or less

[@jeffzimmerman25]

What next product do you use for those driveway crack weeds 😝 great video!

[@DaddingAllDay]

Dang... hahaha! I use Milo.

Yard looks great, knock that summer crabgrass out with some Tenacity, surfactant & some color dye so you don't overspray.

[@DaddingAllDay]

I have a product I’m going to be trying out on my channel that supposedly will take out the crabgrass and bermuda.

[@saxtont47]

Too bad this stuff isn’t available in Canada...would love to try it out

[@jasonheath5306]

I need more practice with the hose sprayer. I usually blow the contents before the lawns satisfied.

[@teamclarktrackfield]

Dude, you’re asking for it.....😁 “That’s what she said.”....JK....

[@minoutv7347]

Need to calibrate your sprayer. Ortho sprayers are suppose to be 2 gallons in two minutes. Mine is 6 gallons in two minutes! So I have dial down the settings or move fast! Both LCN and Lawnology have videos on calibrating the Ortho sprayers. They basically turn the dial to “off” on the spray head, then open up the water on. The spray head and spray into a one gallon bucket, timing it for one minute. That will tell you hw fast your sprayer is emptying out. You can practice by putting few drops of any of the biostims in your sprayer just enough to turn the water brown. Then you can practice using the sprayer on different settings to see what works best for you. A few drops to turn the water brown helps you see how much is spraying out, and does not waste product or over apply product to lawn.

[@jasonheath5306]

@@minoutv7347 yes I seem to have really high water pressure so that is the reason.

[@TheDylan6908]

Jason, for fertilizer you can fill the hose end sprayer with more water than the fert bottle instructions say. You can also use a lower setting number on sprayer so you'll have more time to spread the fert. Water is a "carrier" for the liquid fert. Ratio does not have to be for example 6 oz/1 gal. Weed killer, fungicide different story.

[@RaulSachsCarrillo]

Not about the plants damn😫 but it's about the lawn nice 😉 bringing out the Journal like LCN nice!!!!!! Just throw it down🤭 great detail in the video👍

[@DaddingAllDay]

RaulSachsCarrillo Heck ya! I was proud of that LCN style journal. Most of the time it’s just chicken scratch.

[@TheDylan6908]

So, does total nitrogen per season come into play here? Are we looking to achieve 1-3 lbs N/ season or does achieving that become less important with spoon feeding?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

With liquid fertilizer, the total N per season is different. While it's an aspect to be aware of, it's not as important. When you throw spoon feeding doesn't change the end goal, it just gets you out applying more often. That's really all it's about.

[@pablitoramos10]

How often should be applied?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

This is Chuck. You can apply every couple of weeks in the small dose.

[@dhartman9208]

How often do you apply this spoon feeding application.. once a week? Bi weekly? Once a month?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

You can do it weekly or bi-weekly. Usually for spoon feeding it's a low application, more often.

[@tonygring5533]

How long do I have to wait after putting the liquid d thatch down to overseed or can that be done all the same time

[@vparmato]

I've come to the conclusion that liquid nitrogen is way too expensive. It has some advantages such as control of location, rate, etc, but the higher value is the micro-nutrients that you don't get from your typical granular Nitrogen fix. Interpret this as you want, but using liquid micro-nutrients in addition to the normal high nitrogen rates that granular gives you is the best of both worlds!

0.03lbs? I’d use that weekly for sure.

[@DaddingAllDay]

Brodey Dover Yup. Not enough for a true feeding, just keeps things going until fall.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Right. Like Chuck said, this is just so you don't stress out the turf when it's those hot summer days.
