Is it appropriate to use this to spread fertilizer throught the seasons as well?

Yes. But note that it is not a broadcast spreader, so you spread path is only as wide as the unit. Note that you can spread seed and fertilizer at the same time, also, if you want to.

Yes, it would do that. Have to take it slowly. It worked great putting Alfa seed down in a 3 acre pasture.

Yes it is. I used it to spread seed and fertilizer both this fall. Great piece of equipment.

Yes. Probably quite well! Make sure the material you put inside is light. This is a light duty spreader. My first one broke. Be careful to not force the handle. Mine was replaced and I intend to use for grass seed. We'll see

Yes you can,it should come with planting instructions.If not start with a small pot(1 gallon) and light soil,move it to the next size up when you see roots coming to the top.Don't overwater.Have plenty of drainage and fertilize at least every 3 months.Mine came out of the box with lemons already on it!

Paul, I bought this for my husband, so I asked him. This is what he said, "You can. But I just water mine enough to water the plants. I'm not trying to water it enough to get anything to run through and make fertilizer."Hope that helps. BTW...he loves his!

The three holes through which the material drops are not large, maybe 1" by 1/2" or so. Also, the stirrer inside the bucket is basicallly a cotter key type of device, sort of like a 2" long bobby pen that whirls. So, while I've never tried it, I doubt that it would be a good job of spreading compost. I think it would just clog up.

I never have used it for that plant, but I would think it would be a wonderful fertilizer for any plant. I use it for everything else. It's my favorite (besides the horse manure of course).

I have used it for spreading grass seed, fertilizer and pelletized lime. For grass seed, you have to play with the setting in order to realize the amount of seed that you wish to apply to your lawn area.

I think you can. It's a very simple design with one solenoid valve. Be sure that whatever you use isn't the type that would clog up small tubing. Liquid fertilizer would be by far the best. To be sure, check wit the manufacturer.

I don't see why not. I use it for spreading Fertilizer, as a gardener. This is small and dosen't hold a lot. If your salting an average driveway, it should be fine. But if you have a large area to do, you may want to look for a bigger one. Another thing, this does not have a squeeze handle, it has a slide lever for the thumb to adjust.I hope this helps

Yes. It can be used more than one season. It is different than the weed barriers you buy at your local stores. It is reinforced with a nylon like substance. It is what the professional landscapers use.

Some of the key parts are heavy plastic so any product that would damage plastic would harm the spreader. My guess is you probably could use it for that purpose although you would, of course, want to wash it out thorougly before using for yard work.

It depends on the mass of whats being broadcast. Fertilizer will spread 10-14 feet depending on the granular size. Small grass seed will only spread 6 to 8 feet or so, but the wind is a big factor. You would want to make several passes either way for even distribution.

yes but it's not recommended as written on packaging. Stainless steel or all aluminum construction spreader would be a better long-term choice or for commercial applications

I haven't tried, but my guess would be no. This unit has 3 thin oval slots that very effectively release fertilizer.

I don't think it would be necessary but if it is a mild mix, you "can". Myself, I'm not a fan of chemical fertilizers, at ALL... ever.

I used it all growing season. I didn't need to use it often as we didn't get a lot of rain.

Just to reiterate, this is more to breakup soil rather than fertilize the lawn. Nevertheless, I used it like fertilizer where I spread the Gypsum over my lawn which is very clay heavy. It does not need to be worked into the clay. This product does work, and after your first pass, you will see a difference. However, my lawn requires more than one pass through.
