pound per thousand square feet

Mass per areaexact by definition

The pound per thousand square feet is the rate unit of turf, lawn care and greenhouse benches, where an acre is far larger than the area actually being treated. It is exactly 0.45359237 ÷ 92.90304 kg/m², about 4.882 × 10⁻³.

Watch out: An acre is 43.56 thousand square feet, so a lawn rate of 1 lb/1000 ft² is 43.6 lb/ac. Confusing the two is the classic way to burn a lawn with forty times the intended nitrogen.
