Any less dusty Organic Fertilizers?
I would really like to use earthrite organic lawn fertilizer on my lawns, however it is soooo dusty when applying. Is there any other granular organic lawn fertilizers that are not as dusty?

Alfalfa pellets come in all sizes from itty bitty (hermit crab food) to as big as your finger (horse and cattle feed).
Corn GLUTEN meal comes pelletized, but I've never seen any in my feed stores, so I don't know what size they are.
Corn meal comes in all chopped and rolled sizes from whole kernels (which result in corn plants) to flour dust.
Used coffee grounds are not too dusty, but they have to be collected and dried to spread. They might be free to collect but they involve labor to make them useful.
