Fall lawn care tips for College Station homeowners
After mowing and watering ends for the season, fall fertilization promotes color and spring recovery. Use balanced 12-12-12 or 8-8-8 at one pound nitrogen per 1000 sq ft, avoid high nitrogen on St Augustine lawns, apply pre emergent herbicides for winter weeds, and prune debris to reduce thatch. Fungicides help prevent brown patch on St. Augustine, and remove excess leaves and clippings to limit pests and disease.
