I can't give you a number of lbs because I apparently got real lazy and never filed the load receipt. Now I can't find it. It was 150lbs of urea per I know but the others? I want to say about 300lbs of P, 150lbs of K, 12lbs(?) of sulfur and 4lbs(?) of boron in whatever form the coop gave me. I leave that up to them till I learn ( or remember ) more. I had (have) a degree in horticulture but haven't grown a plant in over thirty years so I have forgotten about all I had learned about fertilizers and plant growth. I only put the N on 4 acres and the rest went on all six acres. I think I got last years pricing. I'm still trying to build the soil since it was rental ground for over forty years before I got it. It is 200 bushel an acre ground with a csr of over 90 but it was still used up. My neighbor routinely gets 200 bushel+ from just over the fence. ...Randy [Reply]   [No Email]

I put down 100lbs of 46-0-0 @ $.286lb (4 acres), 100lbs of 18-46-0 @ $.42lb, 200lbs of 0-0-60 @ $.42, 10lbs of sulfur @ $.50 and 7lbs of boron @ $.78 per acre for six acres. Plus buggy rental. It all did it's job very well. Now I'm probably going to lose it to rain. OH Well! The P and K will stick around for a while along with the trace elements. The urea was wasted more than likely but it was a minor cost out of it all at $114.40 for four acres. ...Randy   [Reply]   [No Email]
