Has anyone used Gordan's Lawn and Pasture Liquid Fertilizer.....20-0-0? Rural King sells it.

If so, what is the mixing rate and how often should I apply it? Can I apply it now as a foliar application?

20-0-0 is clearly being made to grow grass cheap. DAP is crazy money right now. So is potash. Hence many bargain basement turf fertilizer is made with straight urea.

We're not growing grass.

That said, if you need to get leaves going, and all the other major elements aren't lacking, then go for it.

Maybe an ounce per gallon until we get a few weeks from flowering.

What does the label say after "nutrients derived from"? Urea?

This will be a great foliar fertilizer. How much is it?

Rural King.....$21.99 for 2 1/2 gallons of concentrate.
Treats 15,000 SqFt

Tremor, is your recommendation still 1 ounce per gallon?
And when should I start using?

You can look at my plants in my diary. I think they look healty. They are growing fast but they are not dark green.
