i have already talked with him a while ago and i want either him to put on paper or me pick his brain throughout the year and get a broad guide on what to do for southern yards. something a page or 2 long with enough information to get a typical OB poster through a typical year.
**I am not putting correct information below just an example of what information the guide would give.***
Somthing like this.

This is what I follow for bermuda. Use Lesco products.

well if we could get that paper for more grasses and give a little more explanation of the treatments, is exactly what im looking at getting done.

Generally speaking, right now everyone should be making sure the fall webworm/armyworm/cinch bug infestations are being controlled (via Bifenthrin or carbaryl). Pre-emergent (Simazine is a good, cheap one) should go down by Thanksgiving. If you have had any fungal issues in the past, late fall is also a good time to get ahead on spring fungus by putting down a good fungicide (chlorothalonil, thiphonate-methyl, etc)

So, I have centipede creeping into my back yard that used to be 100% St. Aug. I like this development. Seed heads are forming. If I want even more centipede, do I let the seed mature or is that even a thing? Or, can I just mow it now?
Posted on 10/9/17 at 2:50 pm to Easternrio
Is there such a thing as a pre-emerge to spray??
Posted on 10/9/17 at 2:50 pm to bootlegger
I see you recommend putting a pre emergent out. If someone wanted to reseed the lawn when would this take place?

Also, I will add this for the bermuda folks out there... You need to start raising the deck of your mower. You don't want to be scalping bermuda, going in to dormancy.
Posted on 10/9/17 at 3:20 pm to bootlegger
how is this? from Georgia for fields with Bermuda. I wonder if LSU has written out what i am imagining the outline to be.

In the last two weeks my St. augustine has gone to shite. I have weeds popping up everywhere, and a lot of it is Virginia button weed.
