google that Bermuda bible. But you're getting real close to just putting ferterlizer out for no reason.

Two weeks ago would have been ok. That was my last application, and I wouldn't have normally applied that late if not for the temps we're experiencing now.

At this point, your next application should be your April application

My 2 cents - I would say it depends on what kind of fertilizer you're referring to.

Low N and high K would probably be OK but it would need to be put down right now.

Other than that, I would say wait until next season.

Asking because of all this late hear I was going to give it a boost before going dormant in the cooler temps. I had done my pre emerg ~2 weeks ago. Its on sale at lowes and bought a few bags.



Also the rain finally after a month of nothing I was gonna give it a "shot"

Save it and use it in the spring. You don’t want to use a high nitrogen fertilizer this late in the year, no upside, lots of downside. Unless you are living where lawn grass grows year-round - like south FL.

Because it’s too late for it. Good buy though, I also buy my fert in the fall on sale and just store in my shop until the next spring.

Did my pre emergent today. Little later than I had planned but soil temp still 75 degrees so think I will be ok. Better late than never I guess.
I agree too late to waste fertilizer since grass will be trying to go dormant pretty soon

You’re cool. Just lay down $10 Walmart 10-10-10 then spray sulfran.
