BONUS

OCTOBER 24th – NOVEMBER 7th, HALLOWEEN

This is an OPTIONAL Step

Some things to get ready for during this time as temperatures begin to cool

If you do not know how to winterize your sprinklers it is best to get on someone’s schedule now.
Your grass should be looking great! Try to keep up with the leaves as letting them lie on your lawn can promote fungus growth. I recommend mulching if there are a light amount of leaves in the yard, and bagging/raking if there are a lot.

APPLICATIONS

Apply all products safely on the same day!

Spray with lawn safe selective herbicide or pull.

Apply Milorganite (11.5 setting on Scott’s EdgeGuard) or other Organic fertilizer
- Most organic fertilizers DO NOT need to be watered in.

MOWING AND IRRIGATION

Mow at 3 1/2 – 4″ (measured from flat surface to bottom of mower deck)
- Always mulch unless the lawn is covered in leaves, then bag. Light covering of leaves can be mulched.

Irrigation should be as needed this time of year. If the grass is looking dull, give it an irrigation.
- 1x irrigation is equal to 20 minutes with pop up spray type sprinkler and 45 minutes with rotor type sprinklers (1hr 20 min with mp rotators)

BONUS APPLICATION

This application is not necessary, but with this little extra effort, things will move more quickly
