Fertilizing your sarasota landscape is a real challenge.  So many practices work in your neighbors yard that do not work in your own yad.  I find turf in Sarasota is especially hard to get to respond to fertilizer.  One thing that is very important is patients.  It takes time to turn a yard around, and it can get very expensive.  I am a proponet of getting rid of most turf and installing Sarasota Native plants and palms that dont need any where near the fertilizers and pesticides and not to mention water requirements that turf does.  I have installed E.Z flow fertigation systems on several of my accounts and it works much better than spreading granule fertilizer, many factors have to be present to activate fertilizer, such as moisture, heat, not too little not too much of either.  With Sarasota E.Z. Flow systems all this is eliminated, every time you water small doses of fertilizer is fed to your turf and landascape which plants and turf absorb, there is no run off no pollution, and the plants become healthier, requiring less water and less pest problems as a result.
