When is the Right time to Fertilize my Lawn & Garden

GARDENS

Spread Osmocote slow release granules throughout all gardens once in April then again in July

Spread Ironite granules around Azaleas, Camellias, Gardenias and any plants that appear yellow

Spray Horticultural Oil on shrubs April thru August

Spray Copper fungicide to control diseases

FRUIT TREES

Spread Fertilome Fruit, Citrus and Pecan tree food once during April with 3% Zinc

WEEDS IN GARDEN

Spread AMAZE Grass and Weed preventer by Green Light or Preen. It will not harm existing shrubs. I find it last about 2-3 months depending on rainfall. It won’t completely stop them but slow down growth for sure.

LAWNS

Apply Fertilome or Scott’s Winterizer granules October or November( Bag will say “Winterizer”)

Apply first application April 15  Weed & Feed Fertilome or Scott’s ( Only do it once in April)

Apply second application June 15 should be Lawn Food fertilizer Fertilome or Scott’s ( NO WEED/ FEED)

Apply third application August 1 Lawn Food fertilizer Fertilome or Scott’s (NO WEED/FEED)

Apply Lawn Insects granules Ortho or Fertilome in April and June

Fungus problems mainly occur during wet periods use Fertilome F-STOP or Scott’s Lawn Fungus Control as needed for brown patch ( usually active spring and late fall)

PALMS

Apply Fertilome Palm Tree Food once in April and again in July

*****FOLLOW MANUFACTURER’S DIRECTIONS FOR APPLICATION RATES*****

MOST IMPORTANT ALWAYS USE A SPREADER, NO HAND SPREADING AND WATER IN AFTER APPLYING
