Last Fertilizer Application until Fall

Now is the time for the last fertilizer application until the fall. You need to get it applied before June 30th. The number of different fertilizers on the market is numerous as are the recommendations on what fertilizer to use. Here at Wells Brothers, we try to keep it simple so here are our recommendations.

Bermuda lawns on the synthetic side:

• 16-20-0
• 28-6-6
• 24-0-0

Bermuda on the all-natural side:

• 6-2-4 Texas Tee
• 4-1-2 Dirt Diet
• Medina 3-2-3:

Synthetics for St. Augustine:

• 16-20-0
• 24-0-0

All-naturals for St. Augustine:

• 4-1-2 Dirt Diet
• 4-2-3 Medina
• 6-2-4 Texas Tee

Fertilizing St. Augustine in hot weather with high nitrogen water-soluble fertilizers, (21-0-0 ammonia sulfate, 46-0-0 urea) can promote the growth of “Grey Leafspot” fungus. I recommend the all-naturals for this time of year.
