Why the Pros Love It

DG Technology

Contec DG 18-3-18 is made with our patented Dispersing Granule (DG) Technology. When this product comes into contact with water, each granule breaks down into thousands of micro-particles, helping move the product down into the soil profile more efficiently.

Small Particle Size

Standard consumer fertilizer granules are 60% bigger than the size of Contec DG granules. The pros prefer formulas with smaller particles because it provides more complete and uniform coverage, which boosts the product’s effectiveness.

Your Bermudagrass Will Love It, Too.

Contec DG’s ultra-small particles and DG Technology work together to break through Bermuda’s dense canopy and thatch, delivering nutrients directly to the soil. This ensures better absorption and more even feeding—ideal for lawns maintained at a shorter height.

When to Apply Contec DG

Contec DG can be applied any time turf is actively growing. With the combination of quick- and slow-release nitrogen, this formula will feed for up to 8 weeks.

For best results, reapply Contec DG every 6 to 8 weeks.

Pro Tips for Best Results

Check The Forecast

Avoid applying before heavy rainfall so particles don't get washed away.

Mow First

Clear any lawn debris and make it easier for particles to reach the soil.

Clean Up

Sweep or blow product off the driveways/sidewalks back into the lawn.

Water Deep

Your lawn will need at least 0.2 inches of water.

Spreader Settings

We recommend using a broadcast spreader. These spreader settings are a guide. Many variables such as walking speed, terrain, particle size, density, and spreader condition can affect these settings. Be sure to calibrate your spreader before every application.
