Hello,

I bought a bag of Lebanon Proscape 25-2-5 Fertilizer with MESA that I intend to apply this spring to my tall fescue lawn that I overseeded with some TTTF last fall. I mowed my lawn for the first time this spring on Sunday. I already applied some Green Light Crabgrass Preventer with Dimension (no fertilizer content) a couple weeks ago. The Proscape fertilizer is supposed to be formulated with a special slow release nitrogen (MESA) that will not promote excess leaf growth. The reason I want to apply it now in the spring is that a couple of the areas of my lawn that I completely re-seeded with the TTTF are looking a bit nitrogen starved (still yellow after the rest of my lawn is green). I was thinking about applying it tonight, but the weather forecast here in Louisville, KY is for about 5 straight days of high rain chances. How much rain is too much rain to reduce the effectiveness and longevity of the fertilizer? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
