After many attempts by several delegates to the Continental Congress, a draft by John Dickinson of Pennsylvania was the basis for the final document, which was adopted in 1777. 1  The Articles went into effect on March 1, 1781, after all 13 states had ratified them. The Articles of Confederation lasted until March 4, 1789, when they were replaced by the U.S. Constitution.
Fertilizer Frequency. According to the University of California, lawns should be fertilized about four times a year. The total amount of nitrogen lawns need to grow is typically divided into four applications of 1/2 to 1 pound of nitrogen per 1,000 square feet of lawn per application.
