Epic First Urea Feeding on New Grass

The lawn is continuing to progress and showing signs that it’s ready to leave sprout and pout. I decided to give it a small dose of fast release urea. I’m then going to followup every week with a dose of fast release urea, slowly increasing the amount.

This tactic is used by many to really optimize the fall fertilization schedule. Rather than dump all the fertilizer in one go, it’s spoon feeding the urea weekly. This actually reduces the amount of fertilizer runoff and waste, as the grass can actually use all the nitrogen in the smaller doses.

For normal lawns I’ll do 1lb per k of urea, which is half a pound of nitrogen per k. For the renovation I’m starting at half that and working up to that rate, until “the pause” when the grass stops growing vertically.
