Centipede Grass and Weeds
-
Walter Reeves on Feb 08, 2012Be sure you're using Weed B Gon for Southern Lawns and apply exactly as the label says....not too much. Remember that a vigorous lawn is the best weed control. Get the soil tested and fertilize as recommended to help the grass control the weeds.Helpful Reply

Barry B on Feb 08, 2012Thank you for the advice I will follow it very carefully. I have been under the impression that Centipede should not have any fertilizer applied to it, am I wrong?Helpful Reply

Walter Reeves on Feb 09, 2012no - centipede needs fertilizer, just not as much as bermuda or fescue. In the absense of a soil test, apply 6 pounds of 15-0-15 per 1000 sq ft two to three weeks after spring green-up and again in midsummer (July - August). see http://www.caes.uga.edu/Publications/displayPDF.cfm?pk_ID=6853Helpful Reply

Patty on Jan 11, 2016I have found that when I spray the weeds in my lawn it looks like they are dead but after awhile they come back so now when winter turns the grass brown I go out and pull the weeds up as best I can. I usually do it aster a rain when the ground is soft it is a lot easier that way. Each year I have fewer weeds to pull up.Helpful Reply
