Last Summer application Bermuda

6 years ago

So here has been my schedule so far for the front-yard -


April 18 - Alfalfa 10 lb/1000 sq ft

22 - Applied starter fertilizer 24-25-4

May 24 - 24-0-10

June 20 - 24-0-10

July 20 - 24-0-10

Aug 3 - 24-25-4 , Alflfa pellets

24 - 24-25-4 (This literally helped the spot a bit where the buttonweed was)

Sept 10 - Prodiamine liq app


In NC, we can get easily another month going up till mid-Oct for another fertilizer app. The front yard has not been gr8 compared to my backyard. The backyard has responded well with the 1 app of 24-25-4 and the same schedule as above with 24-0-10(50% slow release).

Question - for this last app of fertilizer for the front yard, should I just get a soil test done and then apply the recommended fertilizer or just go ahead with another 24-25-4?

I am tempted to get a 46-0-0 ($20) but not sure if the front-yard will respond and it is end of the summer and don't want to get the fertilizer to sit and get stale.

Thoughts?
