How to Record Fertilizer Applications

This how-to guide describes methods for recording fertilizer applications.

If you have several custom fertilizer blends, and you want to track inventory levels of each, the best approach is to create a chemical for each blend.  If you don't need to track inventory levels, and don't need to see historically which blend you have applied than you can use the build in 'Custom NPK' chemical for all of your fertilizer applications.

You will need the Spray Module to record fertilizer applications. For more information on using this module see the main instructions page linked HERE.
