The question was, has anyone ever used it??

Your post doesn't answer the question and is not helpful in any way.
 
His post was helpful. You’ve got 8.8 lb of actual nitrogen. That’s a little more than a third of the equivalent of a 50 lb bag of urea. You can either fertilize a .08 acre plot of brassicas or you can give it to your wife for her garden. :)
 
No, it wasn't helpful.......ha didn't say whether he had used the product, whether it worked or anything else about it......his post was a waste of time.
 
It actually was. You answered your own question but fail to see your own answer. You are dealing with very small amount which spread over a plot would do basically nothing. If You had enough to make a difference it may be ok so using it on the flower bed at least you won’t loose money with the purchase.
 
Be careful, a high dose of 32% can burn leaves and kill plants, if you spray it out make sure you dilute it.

You can also mix it in with some chemicals like Rup and 2-4D and give them a little boost. Basically use it as a adjuvent
 
Generally liquid fertilizers are not cost effective for foodplots. But you could spray it down in a tank of water to give any foodplot a boost if needed. A last nitrogen boost on a any fall foodplot? You could even spray it on your lawn come spring? One should always be on the lookout for any deal on any Nitrogen fertilizer, Just keep in mind the actual cost of N per pound. ;)

Since the question I asked was if anyone has used it.......I fail to see how I "answered my own question".......
 
By doing the math from the numbers you posted. It is %32 at a weight of 11 lbs per gallon. So in a 2.5 gallon container you are looking at roughly 8# of N.
You failed to mention a specific application strategy suck as adding N at planting or for a quick boost later in the season. I see asking if this can be applied as more of a question of should it be applied. To this without knowing your specific goal how do we answer if it should be used?
I truly am not trying to give you any sort of grief with my answer but rather to get you to thinking about what info you provided and how it relates to your possible use. I will preface this with some additional info that products like this are usually applied directly to souls rather than sprayed on. With spraying directly on you will likely need specialized nozzles with larger openings made for the thicker fertilizers as well.

You still don't get it!!

Go back and actually READ the original post.......you will find that I did NOT ask if it can be applied or if it should be applied. I didn't ask how to apply it or what is needed to apply it......I simply asked "Anybody ever use this stuff??"........

You are trying to answer questions that I did not ask......either: 1) you didn't really read the original post, 2)you can't comprehend the simple question or, most likely, 3)you are trying to answer the questions YOU THOUGHT I should be asking. This has become almost routine on this forum, so it's not just you. Even in your last post, you are still trying to answer questions that I didn't ask......because you apparently believe those are the questions I should be asking....unfortunately, because you are focused on the questions YOU think I should be asking, you have made further assumptions about what I already know or don't know.

In conversation, this situation is referred to as "self listening".......the listener is so focused on forming their answer that they hear, but don't really listen to the question being asked, before offering an answer. This results in a lot of miscommunication......especially between husbands and wives!!:D

I wanted to know if any of the forum members had ever used this product.......it's REALLY that simple!

If someone had actually used the product, I may or may not have inquired further about their experience depending on how they answered...but, most likely, if they had actually used the product, they would have included results in their response.

You still haven't answered the question.......have you personally used this product??:D

If you have, I might want to ask you some more questions about it!!:D
