The timeline to apply fall pre-emergent herbicide to your lawn is the beginning of September through mid to late October. There are three criteria that must be met for seeds to germinate:
Correct moisture
Correct temperature
A good location (soil)
When these conditions are met, the seed will sprout and you will have weeds.
New Braunfels Feed and Supply offers its mix of Winterizer 18-16-2 formulated for our area. Note that we no longer offer Amaze or XL2G.
On the all-natural side, we offer Medina HastaGro Lawn 12-4-8. This liquid lawn food is like getting a lawn care kit in a bottle. Just attached a garden hose to this ready-mix formulation and give your lawn a boost.
Most folks also apply fertilizer this time of year. Some of the all-natural fertilizers we offer include LadyBug, 7-2-2 and 6-2-2 Garden-Ville and Medina Organic. Medina Organic, available in a 40Lb bag is our most popular organic option. It’s very good for the lawn, does not burn and provides great results.
We also offer Ladybug organic fertilizer and garden care products as well!
Synthetic fertilizers include Ferti-Lome and Hy-Yield products. No matter what product you favor, follow the label directions and know the square footage of your lawn.
