Hope I don’t burn up my grass because it is so hot but still too many weeds. Put first round of weed and feed down about 12 weeks ago. Centipede grass (mostly with some St. Aug mixed in).Thanks

you could’ve just put down dimension and sprayed. You should’ve fertilized for the summer in May/June with a “summer” fertilizer. Prolly going to burn....

I put down dimension every 3 months and it seems to do the job. Also, there are some
Products that you can spray that aren’t temperature sensitive. PlanTec carries one that’s in a small black capsule that works, can’t remeber the name right off hand.

When the temp is right, weed free zone does a good job with dropping dimension.

Is atrazine temp dependent?

I know I can’t spray anything w 2,4d due to temps which is why weed free zone is out

Put down Celsius. No burn. You shouldn’t weed and feed. You should fertilize when needed/on schedule then put pre and post emergent down. Celsius will work right now and not kill your yard.

Put down some Milorganite this time of year. No burn and let the Centipede grow and take over the weeds. Try a weed and feed in the fall. I just put down 240lbs of Milorganite a month ago and nobody can touch my yard.

Lowes.

HD says they carry it. They don’t.

I got mine from Siegen Lowes.

Ice Cream- do you put down the recommended amount of Milorgranite or do you put down more?

Full blast from my Scott’s spreader in one direction. 4-5 setting going perpendicular afterwards.

Man, that's a tough one....but I don't think it's crabgrass. Someone may correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it's Alexandergrass.

I’m with boot, don’t think that’s crabgrass. Not sure what it is though.

Got a pretty good infestation of it in my centipede. What should I hit it with?

I think I bought the last bag in the Lafayette area. Had to drive to Breaux Bridge.
