   Some things that I've learned...
   - never fertilize a dry lawn - water a day or 2 before a planned
   application
   - water again 1 day after application
   - use a drop spreader for accuracy
   - use 2/3 amount recommended by manufacturer
   
   I have great success using Bandini brand lawn fertilizers. I apply every
   six weeks to dwarf fescue (in northern Califonia) using Turf Green in the
   spring/summer, and Turf All Seasons in the fall/winter. I have done this
   for the past six years and while I will probably get hammered by some in
   this group, my lawns are thick, lush, deep dark green and the envy of the
   neighborhood. Watering deeper and less often will also help, but it's been
   my experience that this pattern needs to be established in spring.
