@@mswalsh68 I was about to say the same thing when I noticed your comment. At first I assumed he was located in another state but then he said Florida so looks like he has been putting down almost double the rate he should. I'm in Pasco County so will be using 6.15lbs.
@@mswalsh68 Yes, there are FL laws that regulate the amount of P allowed on lawns. Many counties (including Manatee County) prohibit P application unless a state soil test showing P deficiency is submitted to the County prior to application
I always had 5 or 6 bags in the garage for my 2600 sq ft lawn. $8 back then, ace hardware always had it. You're the one that got me into lawn care, thank you Allyn!
OG Milorganiter and Subscriberter here from the Chicagoland days! Hope you’re well, brother! It has been a minute! You got so many people to *throw er down* in ‘17 | ‘18 | ‘19 the price went from $9 a bag to over $20 in Chicago! Thankfully I hoarded it early and dominated my neighbors! 😜
You’re amazing thank you, just a few treatments & my neighbors are OMG WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!! First time ever in 29 yrs we’re happy w our HOA lawn 😊 ❤sharing the program/app w them
Yup... I was around when I couldn't find any. If I'm not mistaken they raised their prices after that year. Used to be $12 I think, now its $23 per bag in CT. Nuts. I don't use it anymore because of price and because my soil test shows I need more Potassium and less Phosphorus.
Bringing back Milo and the old school music took me back many years bro! I was a Milo stockpiler during the shortage years… I blamed you solely for the increase in sales and resulting shortage of supply 😂
Your yard and the Freedom Factory are looking fabulous. I am hopeful Cleetus doesn’t “burn” in his own stripes. BTW, why does it say FL 5200 sq ft on the bottom of the Milo bag?
I worked in the supply chain department of a hardware retail chain when this was selling out. My team's job was to keep us in stock and we had many conversations with MMSD during this time. To understand why it was selling so well, I started searching online and it became my first introduction to both Milorganite and Allyn. While those days were challenging and frustrating, today I am more educated in lawn care as a result. I've been following the Lawn Car Nut and Yard Mastery cool season plans ever since. 😊
I used milo and used to have serious fungus it seemed like it would rain and my grass would melt. I stopped putting milo down and my fungus issue disappeared. I dont know if it was milo but since i stopped using it my st aug hasnt needed any fungicide for like 3 years.
Thanks for the educative videos - always a pleasure to watch. Are we ignoring the FL application rate of 6.4 ? why does it says 5000sqft for FL and 2500 for other states? What would you recommend?
You turned me on to Milo back then and I've been hooked on LCN since then. Chicago area prices haven't come down since... I miss $9/bag. Which is why I've converted to almost 100% Yard Mastery fert. Thanks as always for all you do for us Allyn! For those of you intimidated... Don't be. Do it once or twice and you'll get it no problem.
2018 was exactly when I got into lawn care and became a lawn care nut. We got our house in Tampa 2017 and all I did was water and cut, didn't know anything. February 2018 came and my lawn went full dormant as it was watered enough and hadn't been fertilized. I found this channel, followed his tips, and the lawn bounced back very nicely. Currently my "nuttiness" has taken a break since I have a toddler and we have separate companies doing the lawn/landscaping care and treatments. But I'll always be a lawn care nut and I still watch every video. 😊
I was there with you in Milorgdrought!! But you got me turned on to GUS BOCK…on sale and in stock Still going to Gus today I’m a Lowell Indiana guy and you and Jake get me through the LONG LAWN days!! Hope you still come around to visit Jake If you do a meet/greet this year please let me know! Love to meet ya Thank you for all the INFO
Hi Allyn, I do remember when Milo was sold out. I was fortunate and go the last 5 bags at my home center. I have a question I purchased a Earthway 2600a + seeing as you recommended so highly. Do you have a setting for that spreader, or should I use the calibration as you recommended for the Scotts? Thanks, I have watched you since you were in Indiana.
LCN - I LOVE your content! I've been a huge fan for quite some time. Can you please tell me - - - I have a lawn that is one side Zoysia - the other side a Zoysia-Bermuda mix. Is there any way I can get rid of the Bermuda to make my lawn pure Zoysia? I thank you!
Seeing that Earthway drum in the garage but the Scott's out in the driveway is like keeping the '57 Chevy in the garage and taking the '94 Camry out for a spin 🤣
Yes, the instructions on the back of the bag state "FL residents, apply 2 times per year at the rate of 32lbs per 5,200 sq ft." That's 6.15lbs per 1000 sq ft, not 12.8 lbs.
I use this method when putting down fertilizer, measuring the square feet and calculating how many pounds I will need. It definitely works as I have the greenest, thickest grass in mid April (Northeast) in my neighborhood. All my neighbors ask me how I do it. I tell them you have to measure your yard if you want to make sure your getting enough fertilizer down. Also, instead of using a scale for measuring the fertilizer, I found it's faster to just convert it to ounces and use a big juice pitcher (Amazon) with the ounces labeled on the side. You pour it in the pitcher and your done instead of remeasuring several times with the scale. Milogranite is also an awesome product. You never have to worry about burning your grass and it provides a deep rich green color.
I have issues with that exact spreader, as do many people based on Home Depot reviews too. The throw from the impeller throw hits the wheels (the ferts get stuck in the hollow cavity inside the wheels) and you end up with stripes in the lawn :( I just go with a hand spreaders now, luckily my yard is only 6000 sq.ft.
Still my go to product I've gotten down to only Spring and late fall applications I go pretty heavy on the late fall drop. My local Ace still has spring deals for $9-$10 a bag so it's not as "rare" as it used to be. Allyn, I think you created the fury / buzz over Milo all by yourself! 🙂 Thanks again for guiding me towards a great lawn. When I retired I took over lawn maintenance and with your guidance my lawn is the envy of my neighbors. When i see my local Ace puts it on sale half my neighbors are filling baskets and trucks with it! Once again sir ....Thank you
I'm definitely going to get the grub X and peel off the moss in front of the house. Do I really need to do this ? I'm planning on getting some Scott grass seed. 6:23
I was around for the great Milo shortage. I had a friend who found it 40+ miles away from where I live and we bought a bunch of it and made a road trip to get it.
Thanks for all the helpful and intellectual info, greatly appreciated! One question, why use the edge guard at property line and not share the wealth?! Especially in the case of herbicide.. Wouldn’t you be decreasing probability of weeds coming across by backing out that treated area further?
Hey Allyn, quick question if I may. We have dead areas of established St Augustine but rather than buy plugs etc, the areas are mostly close enough to spread back together. Would you recommend Milo for this because of the Nitrogen to help get it spreading or? (We have a walk spreader which is easier on the back than a backpack sprayer etc so granules would be best due to a bad back…) Also once it grows back together that will naturally choke out most of the weeds that grew in between right?
I also like to use organic early spring, late fall. I'm thinking of switching from Milo or Sunniland organic to using YM Soil Fit. It has more N, no P, and some K...8 0 3. What do you think?
Any of you early day viewers remember that kick ass music Alan used when he went to Miami? He did the shot in Indiana and cut to him on a hotel balcony in Miami, hot cars, etc! I STILL blast that tune to test the surround sound lol (If you remember that one I’d love to hear it)

Question. If I apply flagship this month. Can I apply flagship in may milogarnite in June then flagship in July in an alternating way without any destirion to lawn?
I was a 10lbs every month guy. Grass looked great! That is until i started testing the soil and saw my calcium was way too high. Milo was something like 20% calcium.
I live in northern Louisiana where the phosphorous levels are exceedingly high already so I don't apply Milo anymore. I did use it a few seasons when my sod was new and it did perk it up. If Milo made a zero-phosphorous version for southern lawns I'd give it a full dose at least once annually.
Hey man so I’m just north of you in Tampa, I put fertilizer down in spring. When in the fall do you put this down, we have no fertilizer ban till the end of summer. So September maybe?
did you include the bucket weight on the 12.8? also i have heard diesel exhaust fluid is the purest nitrogen 15-0-0 DEF, and that its a cheap affordable way to nitrogen fertilize your yard, is this true?
This video reminds me of the OG LCN videos! Show us how to use the stuff we find in the big box stores. And, yes I stockpiled some of the Milo back when it was cheap!
Love the Stirling! Purchased mine a few years ago, and it lays down some amazing stripes on my KBG. I always have someone in the neighborhood staring at it or asking about it lol.
I remember those days. I have a small lawn and I still buy my seasons worth of bags in March (I live in MN) just to make sure I have enough for the year. The big box employees always look at me crazy because most of the time there’s still snow on the ground haha
At the beginning of the video, you said the whole bags analysis contains 6%N. Your calculations didn't consider the 32lbs, and it didn't look like you considered the tare weight of the bucket. Good content. Thanks
I actually use that in my food plots in south east Ohio to get them established the smell keeps the deer out of them for a minute until they get going. Plus it’s awesome.
I was there on that day. It was sunny outside but in aisle 7 at Lowe’s it was the dark clouds of war. We were down to the last bag. I told them not to go but they didn’t listen. Lost a lot of good men due to the shortage of Mil. I still wake up in the middle of the night holding on to a pillow screaming “it’s mine it’s mine it’s mine!!”
It’s state law in Florida to stay under that rate, and in some county’s it’s illegal to apply any phosphorus without a soil test showing a deficiency in phosphorus. So yeah, take that for what you will.
I was around for the 2018 mess. I went to a local landscape supply and nursery and got the pro stuff with the smaller prills and stocked up 50lb bags got like 8 of them
Lawn tech here. At a seminar this past winter, they talked about this p Miloganite containing PFAS. Both fertilizer company representatives stated that most states are moving away from using this product. Stock up while you can.
I prefer Milo since it has lower N and I can fill the hopper more. I find it easier to apply more evenly and it allows me to pay more attention to my passes as opposed to watching the product dwindle down.
Sta-Green has an excellent natural fertilizer with a 16-0-10 analysis, that’s what my soil wanted after high phosphorus numbers from years of Milorganite use.
Have 3 bags of LCN product in my garage... walking into a local Ace Hardware -- there stood a pile of Milo. Couldn't help myself. Bought enough for an app. Sometimes you just gotta go with Milo!!
Remember FL is 5200 sqft. Not 2500 sqft for your bag rate if your soil test is deficient in P. You have said in the past on video's?? Am i not correct in mentioning this??
For those of us living in Florida, where the rate is 5200 Sq Ft per 32 lb bag (6.15 lbs per 1000sq Ft), surely this means that the gap setting on the spreader needs to be reduced accordingly? Otherwise, it will be spread too quickly and run out around halfway. I'd like to hear back from anyone who has already realized this and made the required adjustment. Thanks.
When it was $6-$7 a bag, I used it during my hottest summer months…good stuff. 2020 came and like everything else it became stupid expensive. I think it hovers around $25 for a #32 bag.
Okay I was around during the shortage. In fact I used Moorganite which is similar but made with cow manure. I think they still sell it at Tractor Supply. No kidding I got the worst weeds ever after using it!
Milorganite Plant Tour - ruclips.net/video/X1Tjp6WiGsg/видео.html
Was never sold out in Wisconsin.
You didn’t do the Florida rate though. 5200 for Florida. Would be 6.15 lbs / 1k sqft
Would it make a difference in a bad way?

I remember stocking up with my dozen bags of Milorganite each year and it only costing $7 a bag. Those were the good old days.
What year was it $7 bucks
Exactly! They have went crazy on the price of this stuff! Crazy! I literally switch back to synthetics because of the prices of natural fertilizers.
@@Theoneswholive723 2018 Menards sold it for $6.99 a bag.
In 2018 Menards sold it for $6.99 a bag with the 11% rebate.
I have a pic of a Home Depot receipt from 6/29/18 where they price matched Fleet Farm for me at $7 a bag.
I always had 5 or 6 bags in the garage for my 2600 sq ft lawn. $8 back then, ace hardware always had it. You're the one that got me into lawn care, thank you Allyn!
I was around!! Was introduced to D.I.Y. lawncare with Scotts, and Milorganite around 2015-16 because of you!! Thank you Sir!!
I started doing lawn care in 2019, found this at a local tool shop and it changed my life 😂
Still stocked up on milorganite! Darkest yard in the neighborhood! Thanks LCN!
Curious, when you circled the 2500 sq ft, application rate on the bag what does the "FL 5,200 sq ft" mean under what you circled?
You are so patient. I love that you explain things so completely.

Question. If I apply flagship this month. Can I apply flagship in may milogarnite in June then flagship in July in an alternating way without any destirion to lawn?
Yes you can. Keep them 4 weeks apart, all good 👍
I mainly use it to keep deer away from ornamental plants. A Solo cup sprinkled around an area works for about two weeks in my area, depending on rain.
I was a 10lbs every month guy. Grass looked great! That is until i started testing the soil and saw my calcium was way too high. Milo was something like 20% calcium.

Yara Amidas.
I was around since before your move. I still do the Milo routine on my lawn because it STINKIN works!
Dumb question. Does edge guard 'double app' the edges? Do edges need a lower rate?
I stopped using milorganite because the dogs in my neighborhood were attracted to my yard. I miss that green grass. Does the Flagship attract animals?
Hey man so I’m just north of you in Tampa, I put fertilizer down in spring. When in the fall do you put this down, we have no fertilizer ban till the end of summer. So September maybe?

put down my prodiamine down over a week ago. when should I throw down my flagship?
What’s the biggest difference between this Milorganite and Milorganite greens grade? Other than the analysis?
Actually, Milo has synthetic fertilizer mixed in. They want to get a quick green while waiting on the slower release organic fertilizer to kick in.
This video reminds me of the OG LCN videos! Show us how to use the stuff we find in the big box stores. And, yes I stockpiled some of the Milo back when it was cheap!

I have lived in Minnesota and Wisconsin, so I understand and have compassion for your mental state.
I may or may not still have 4-5 bags from when I bought it before doing a soil test. Back when it was $11 a bag

Are you guys on water restrictions. Pinellas county...we get reclaimed water on Saturdays.
Does anyone know if it's OK to spray the lawn with Peter's 20-20-20 in between Milorganite application?
5:18 ....thick and crunchy ...
Love that sound
St. Agus is my favorite
Mine too
Why don’t you follow the Florida application rates?
Sta-Green has an excellent natural fertilizer with a 16-0-10 analysis, that’s what my soil wanted after high phosphorus numbers from years of Milorganite use.
I already have to much phosphorus, I probably shouldn’t use it anymore, or should I. It was 21.41 last year, waiting on this year’s analysis.
when you walk faster - are the prills traveling farther ??
Have 3 bags of LCN product in my garage... walking into a local Ace Hardware -- there stood a pile of Milo. Couldn't help myself. Bought enough for an app. Sometimes you just gotta go with Milo!!
Remember FL is 5200 sqft. Not 2500 sqft for your bag rate if your soil test is deficient in P.
You have said in the past on video's??
Am i not correct in mentioning this??
You gonna do a review on the Allett? I want a reel for my Zoysia. Can’t decide between Allett or Swardman.
yes I will here in the next few weeks
For those of us living in Florida, where the rate is 5200 Sq Ft per 32 lb bag (6.15 lbs per 1000sq Ft), surely this means that the gap setting on the spreader needs to be reduced accordingly? Otherwise, it will be spread too quickly and run out around halfway.
I'd like to hear back from anyone who has already realized this and made the required adjustment. Thanks.
I LOVE the smell of Milo. I need to put tons more down on my little lawn. :)
When it was $6-$7 a bag, I used it during my hottest summer months…good stuff. 2020 came and like everything else it became stupid expensive. I think it hovers around $25 for a #32 bag.
Okay I was around during the shortage. In fact I used Moorganite which is similar but made with cow manure. I think they still sell it at Tractor Supply. No kidding I got the worst weeds ever after using it!
No FourPlay or even Hydretain on those dry spots, Allyn?
