    Anyone have the rates, timing, etc to apply ferrous sulfate on Tif-Eagle greens to hold color in the winter months? Located on the coast of SC and only have about three months of off-color.

    Have sprayed ferrous sulphate along with soluble urea for over 20 years. Very safe and gives almost instant color to non overseeded turf during dormant months. The combination is about as inexpensive as you can find. Spraying when you see a little warming day and lots of sunshine coming will give you some very quick greenup. The rates Scott mentioned sound good..........hard to screw up this combination of products.
