The World's Cheapest Liquid Fertilizer!

[@SpinningSpur]

I find discarded containers of “blue DEF” all the time discarded next to the gas pumps. They usually have a little liquid left in them. I’ll start filling em up with water and spray a little. Thanks

Excellent little vid. Thank you

[@JeffSeetonLawnCare]

Thank you.

How often do you use def on lawn? Whether it is 9 or 15 oz per 1,000 sq ft.

[@JeffSeetonLawnCare]

at 9 oz I will apply every 2 weeks.

[@NyquillaGorillaKilla]

Wouldn’t it be cheaper to use household ammonia diluted with water?

[@JamesPearson-rj7se]

Im just curious, if it works for lawns is it safe to put on your garden?

[@JeffSeetonLawnCare]

You can but you need to be super careful as it can burn plants. Make sure to water in any application.

Should this be followed up with a something like a 0-0-26 foliar phosphate fertilizer to keep things more balanced? I’ve been spraying DEF and iron together every week with great results. 15ounces def per gallon with 8 ounces of chelated iron. I have a common Bermuda lawn.

[@JeffSeetonLawnCare]

If your soil requires it. I would recommend doing a soil test to see where you are at.

[@SouthernLawn]

Thanks Jeff.

I want to use a Ortho Sprayer with a dial, how many ounces per gal should i set it on?

[@SouthernLawn]

My hose end sprayer only goes up to 8oz. I would use that and lay it on heavy. Def has a npk of 15-0-0. So 10 ounces per 1 gallon per 1000 sq ft. Is .1lbs of nitrogen. Goodluck

[@sirliftsalot1154]

Is this foliar feed?

[@JeffSeetonLawnCare]

It can be if it is left on the blades of grass for around 4 hours before irrigating but I water it in after applying.

[@curtisnikel6427]

1 US or 1 imperial gallon of water?

[@JeffSeetonLawnCare]

3.78 litres, so one US gallon.

[@pegasis0066]

I think you are wrong about the amount of N per year per 1,000k/sq feet. Most sources say: 1 and 4 lbs of Nitrogen per 1,000 sq ft of lawn space each year/growing season.

[@JeffSeetonLawnCare]

I didn't talk about a seasonal maximum at all, talked about an application over 1000 sq feet. A single application of a liquid urea should not exceed .2 pounds of N per 1000 sq feet. The maximum amount of N that I apply to my lawn, or my clients, per season, does not exceed 4lbs.
