Testimonials:
By using Grasshopper Liquid Fertilizer, I was able to cut my fertilizer bill from last year by 75% and the yield remained the same. I have seen the results first hand and would highly recommend this product to anyone wanting to maximize production.
David Eddings - Ag Teacher and Rancher
I am a Commercial Applicator. Grasshopper Liquid Fertilizer has become our most popular choice of fertilizer. This product is easy to mix and works well with herbicide. I have not seen a product that will go to work immediately and improve plant color without rain - until Grasshopper.
JE Minoletti - Minoletti and Sons Fertilizer and Application
I have used Grasshopper this past year on our Bermuda hay fields with great results. We raise and market high quality Bermuda horse hay. When using Grasshopper Liquid Fertilizer - we noticed that the hay had better texture, smell, and color. We were also able to cut our fertilizer cost without losing quality or production of hay.

What is GRASSHOPPER 30-10-10?
GRASSHOPPER 30-10-10 is an advanced foliar fertilizer. It is used most often in hay fields, cattle pastures, row crops, gardens, and yards.
How does GRASSHOPER 30-10-10 work?
GRASSHOPPER is a foliar fertilizer. This means that the fertilizer is absorbed into the grass directly. This bypasses the soil completely allowing the fertilizer to become effective the next day. Your soil quality is less relevant when using GRASSHOPPER. This is because the necessary ingredients have bypassed your soil. The physical weight of GRASSHOPPER per acre is much less than granular. Compare this to taking cold medicine for 2 weeks and then finally going to the doctor to get a shot/injection. The shot produces results quicker and more effectively similar to GRASSHOPPER. GRASSHOPPER has an activity period of 3 weeks.
Example:
1 cut hay - wait 1 week
2 apply GRASSHOPPER once a good stand of grass is established - wait 3-4 weeks
3 cut hay again
What type of grass or crop is GRASSHOPER 30-10-10 designed for?
GRASSHOPER is great on all summer and winter grasses, row crops, and garden fruits and vegetables - anything needing nitrogen or micronutrients.
How to Mix?
GRASSHOPPER is mixed best in a sprayer equipped with a circulator or agitator. Fill tank 75% full with water. Slowly pour mix into tank with circulator/agitator running. GRASSHOPPER will mix instantly in the water. We recommend mixing 1 bag per 20-33 gallons of water. If your tank is not equipped with a circulator/agitator, GRASSHOPPER can be mixed easily in a bucket of barrel and the added to your tank.

Is GRASSHOPPER 30-10-10 safe for animals?
GRASSHOPPER can be applied while cows and horses are in the pasture.
Does GRASSHOPPER 30-10-10 require surfactant/sticker when applied?
No, GRASSHOPER is absorbed quickly (15-30 minutes) and easily into the grass or leaf.
Can herbicide be added to GRASSHOPPER 30-10-10?
Yes, GRASSHOPPER works great with herbicide. When the two are combined, surfactant is no longer needed for the herbicide.
When should GRASSHOPPER 30-10-10 be applied?
GRASSHOPPER should be applied when your field or pasture has a good stand of grass. This is because GRASSHOPPER is absorbed thru the grass of leaf.
Example:
If you have a good stand of ryegrass in April and apply GRASSHOPPER, the ryegrass will benefit greatly but not your Bermuda grass. This is because the Bermuda must have good stand to absorb to the fertilizer.
At what rate should GRASSHOPPER 30-10-10 be applied?
GRASSHOPPER should be applied at a rate of 1 bag per 2 acres. This rate is designed for hay production. The rate can be changed up or down as desired. Do not apply 1 bag per acre - This can be too much nitrogen to absorb in one application and might burn your grass. If a stronger rate is desired, we recommend applying the standard amount (1 bag per 2 acres) once and then a second time in 2 weeks.
Does GRASSHOPPER 30-10-10 come in other mixes?
No. We have determined that 30-10-10 is the superior balance for grass growth (in a foliar form). Remember, GRASSHOPER is fertilizing the grass and not the soil.
