What spreader setting should I use for my Scotts spreader when applying your fertilizer?Updated a month ago
To determine the proper spreader setting for your Scotts spreader when applying our fertilizer, you need to know the amount of product you want to apply per 1,000 sqft. For example, if you're aiming to apply 1 lb of product per 1,000 sqft, you would set a Scotts Broadcast Spreader to a 1-2 setting. For a heavier application, such as 4 lbs per 1,000 sqft, you would adjust to a 4-6 setting. It's important to note that all spreaders might behave slightly differently, so it might be beneficial to start with a lower setting to prevent running out of product too early. Gradually increase the setting as needed to ensure even coverage.
Once you achieve the correct setting, write it down for future use. Most of our lawn fertilizers will need to be applied at 4-5 lbs. per 1,000 sqft.
