I'm no expert on spreaders, having only owned a Scotts and a Spyker, but there seems to be one design flaw common to both of them, the last bit of fertilizer requires stupid amouts of jiggling about to get rid of. Is there a spreader which doesn't do this?

I was trying the weigh it out and spread until empty method so it's particularly annoying not to be able to properly spread the last bit.

My Scott's Mini Broadcast spreader does the same.

Sometimes if it's only a few pieces I'll just flip it upside down. Beats jiggling the hell out of it :lol:

I usually do the "spreader hop" drill, then blast out whatever little bit is left into the lawn with the leaf blower.

Im w/ Ware on this. The spreader hop/ dance is the best way.

Definitely overkill for a Fert spreader... but we use a "dry lube" / talcum powder type product in seed boxes so they'll meter seed out evenly. Don't know if that'd be a solution or worth the effort for granular products🤓

Also have a Scotts mini, my wife didn't understand at first why I was hoping and shaking lol.
