Question 1

What is the amounts of nitrogen, phosphours and potassium?

Accepted Answer

It's 35-0-10 and in response to someone else; it's not gonna kill bermuda lawns using it over time :-/ .  Been using this stuff since the 90's no issues.  What kills lawns using fertilizer is when you keep using and using and using.  Use it right the first time no issues will come.

Question 2

May I apply it now (today is June 1, 2015)?

Accepted Answer

If you apply this fertilizer that contain 34-0-10 then the nitrogen will stimulate top growth which is not what you want in the winter time due to freezing weather. It's better to apply like 10-2-7 in winter. That way the roots are stimulated and not top growth.

Question 3

Is it safe to apply this fall lawn food to newly sprouted grass seed?  The grass is about 2 weeks old.

Accepted Answer

Avoid fertilizing any newly seeded lawn until after the 4th mowing.  Scotts offers a fertilizer for newly seeded lawns that is safe to apply and recommended.
