It depends on the size of the granules. I've seen some that are small and some that are large. Setting to get the rate right depends on that. If you could provide the brand of weed and feed, we might be able to look it up.
Hi Mike:
The setting will depend on the size of the weed & Feed pellets.
The package usually has setting instructions on it.
If all else fails, the rate is 1 lb per 250 square feet.
Mark out an area about 10 ft by 25 ft long.
The spreader cast is about 5 ft, so down and back should use 1 lb.
Set the spreader at a minimal rate and see how far 1 lb goes, then adjust the setting accordingly.
The bag should have a phone number for customer support. They would be the ones to give you the conversion rate for your spreader. How many square feet are you treating?
The recommended settings for your type of spreader should be listed on the package of the bag of weed and feed you have. There should be a rate chart on the bag. If not, put the setting on your unit on the middle setting, that way, you are not using too little and not using too much.
