3.2 ounces... a little less than 1/3 cup of fertilizer per gallon of water. I would only use 1/4 cup to be safe

I am sorry but this is an add on question, I live in China and am planning my new lawn (half sorted) I will sow the seeds come autumn as the summer here is very dry and hot. I also make my own seaweed fert, could I use this as a starter feed for my lawn or should I buy something else to give it a kick start?

Thanks for a reply in advance.

seeds come with the nutrients they need to sprout and survive. You should fertilize according to the needs of what you are planting. So check the bag of seeds and follow directions.

Do you know the nutrients that your home made fertilizer contains? Do you have an equivalent to the US based University Coop? Somewhere you can get soil analysed for free or cheap?
