Picked up a customer today and he gave me the print outs from the past year with trugreen. This lawn is a mix of centipede and bermuda. Is this a normal program for them or is this top of the line? Looks like a lot of fertilizer.
Round 1 - feburary - dormant turf - potassium chloride fert and MCPA, Vanquish herb
Round 2- June - fully green turf - ammonium sulfate fert and manor/dismiss herb mix
round 3 - july - green turf - urea/potassium chloride fert and manor/dismiss herb mix
round 4 - sept - turf at end of growing - aluminum sulfate fert and manor/dismiss herb mix
round 5 - oct - turf should be dormant - potassuim to roots and vanquish/princep herb mix
round 6 - nov - urea fert and escalade
I'm wondering about so much fertilizer. Looks like .5-.75 N per app but I only fert 3-4 times a year for good color. Most of the apps are during the fall/winter when the turf is dormant. The peak growing season and when I fert is May-August.
WOuld love to see what you guys thought of this, especially you southern guys.
