Grasshopper was mentioned earlier. We have used Grasshopper in past years on our Bermuda grasses with success. I won't say that it was as stout as 400lbs of ammonium nitrate just before a rain, but it did the job.
We applied Grasshopper Fertilizer on wheat and soybeans this year for the first time. We usually use Starter on the wheat and later topdress with 100 lbs of urea or 150 lbs of 32% UAN. This year, we replaced our current topdress with Grasshopper's 44-0-0 plus micros. The results were mixed, largely due to poor conditions. I may try it again next year.
However, our soybeans are looking great. We applied their 20-20-20 with our glyphosate application. So far, we have more root mass, greater nodulation and 20% more pods. We will see how they turn out.
