15 lbs Sul-Po-Mag per 1000 tilled to 9".

Other than that you're good to go. Just watch the mag & K during the season.

Thanks for the help!

I am assuming you mean 15lbs of sulphur, 15 lbs of potassium, and 15 lbs of magnesium per 1000 square feet.

They could be applied seperately but Sul-Po-Mag is easier & works great.
