Irrigation
Find the square footage of your lawn. Multiply the square footage by .623This is how much water you need to apply during one irrigation session.
Example: Your lawn is 29' x 44', or 1,276sq'
Multiply by .623. You need to apply 795 gallons per irrigation session.
Find how many gallons per minute your sprinkler system puts out to calculate howlong you need to irrigate.
Example: Your sprinkler system releases 10gpm
Divide 795 by 10gpm to determine how many minutes to run your system.Divide 79.5 minutes by 60 to determine how many hours to run your system.
You should irrigate for approximately 1 hr 20 minutes per week.
Fertilizer
Multiply the nitrogen percentage of your fertilizer bag by the weight of the bag.
Example: You have a 50lb bag of 16-4-8 fertilizerMultiply .16 by 50lbs
This bag contains 8lbs of nitrogen.
Find the square footage of your lawn. Apply fertilizer at 1-1.5lbs per 1,000sq'depending on soil tests and local laws.
If your lawn is 1,276sq', and you want to apply 1lb of nitrogen per 1,000sq',
you need to divide 50lbs by 8 to determine how much total fertilizer to apply.With this fertilizer bag, you need to apply 6.25lbs of fertilizer per 1,000sq',
or about 8lbs of total fertilizer for your lawn.
