Dallas area, Can I weed and feed right now (june)?
Question:Dallas area, Can I weed and feed right now (june)?
I used weed and feed about 3 months ago, still I have weeds growing in my yard and lawn doesn't look thick and plush like in pictures. Can I weed and feed again and apply grass seed now?
Answers:
Yes you can weed and feed, but granular weed and feed is not very good. You'll get @ 20-30 percent of the weeds on a good day. And it will only control broadleaf weeds, not grassy weeds. So if you are targeting grassy weeds, don't waste your time with weed & feed. Another down side to weed and feed is that people get it in their flower beds, which are mostly broadleaf plants, not good.If you are trying to get broadleaf, and not grassy weeds I would recommend spraying with weed-b-gone, then fertilizing with a high nitrogen fert like 28-3-10 or something similer. If its grassy weeds your after, spray with MSMA then fertilize. The fert will feed for about 6-8 weeks. Read and follow the lable on all products.
Yes, but go lightly and water like crazy for a week.
Yes, it can be done again. As far as soaking it with a hose, the rain we have had will take care of a lot of that. I don't know anything about other kinds of grass -- I have St. Augustine and it's like walking on carpet.
