When applying turf fertilizer, you do not want to apply more than 1 pound of available nitrogen per 1,000 square feet in any one application. The rates listed on manufacturers bags are figured for this amount. For detailed information on home lawn care (irrigation, mowing, fertilization, thatching), see Fact Sheet 7.202 - Lawn Care.
