I’m following a monthly program from my local sod company for my centipede lawn. For June it says apply pre-emergent which seem off to me. They basically are saying to apply every 4 months February, June, October. Has anyone tried this approach with decent success. I only ever did an October pre-emergent in the past.


It also recommended a 0-0-60 at 1-2 lbs/1000 sq ft in June and November to help with winter and summer stresses. Anyone tried this?

The pre-emergent diminishes over time, so an October application will stop winter weeds and it will wear off by spring time. That schedule is typical.

Yes, I use a Potassium fertilizer. If you had a soil test and they’re recommending that rate, then follow their instruction.

Thanks for the info. My potassium is low according to my soil samples, however I sent my soil sample last year for my black berries. It’s the same soil makeup and type as my sod except it says to put down 1.5lbs/row. I’m assuming the potassium is probably a bit low for my centipede as well.
