10-10-10 to St Augustine

I am in SC and have a mixture of St Augustine and Centipede, probably some other stuff in there too.. my grass is almost all the way greened and I want to apply a fertilizer.
The past two years have been ok but I have some bare spots from previous owner that I thought would fill in better. I know it’s a slow grass but I didn’t get much from it like my last yard. Also I’d like a little more green from it and most importantly I hear fertilizing helps with drought protection? Maybe that’s wrong but I guess I need someone to tell me if it is or not first.

The past two years I have used Milorganite since it’s the easiest and probably one of the safest to not burn my yard. The Milorgani is a 5-3-0 I believe and lacks all potassium, which I what I hear I need for drought help. I know warm season grass doesn’t need a lot of fertilizing but based on what I have said, does it make sense for me to use a 10-10-10? Or is there any other recommendation?
