Fall Lawn Fertilizing
Are there any landscaping specialists out there on CP?
I laid the sod at my place this summer about mid July. So far it has come in quite nicely with the exception of a few spots and the odd weed.
I guess I have 2 questions.
1. Should I be fertalizing the lawn in the fall? I know Scott's is always advertising to fertilize in the fall so your grass comes back stronger in the spring. Someone told me that my grass is too new to be fertilized. So I am wondering if I will do any damage to it.
If I should be fertilizing is there a good time to do it? Like just after or before rain. Does it need moisture?
Does anyone here fertilize in the fall and do you notice a big difference in the spring?
Any other tips or advice is appreciated.
2. Like I mentioned before I have a weed problem in certain areas (due to my neighbour not controlling his weeds and them blowing in my yard). What do you guys find is the most effective weed control that doesn't kill the grass along with it?
