Applying MILORGANITE - at "Half Rate" - Does It Work?

Here where I live, you are only supposed to apply Milorganite 2x per year and when you do, you are supposed to use a "half rate" which means 32lbs only covers 5,200 sq ft rather than 2,500.
This is because Milo contains phosphorous, and in Florida, we have higher phos in our soils naturally, and in addition, the state of Florida believes that runoff can occur with heavier rates sitting in the lawn.

Does LCN still use Milorganite? Yes, 2x per year. Memorial Day and Labor Day and I use the half rate suggested on the bag. My lawn is always green and it stays green when I apply Milo. However, as you can see in this video, the .36lbs/N that you get isn't enough to fully jumpstart a lawn that has not been fertilized in a long time.
