[QUOTE="dun, post: 35096, member: 34"] Most of the fertilizer timing issue is having the stuff available to the grass when it needs/can use it. Cool season grasses (CSG) make the majority of their growth by the middle to end of May. If the fretilizer is applied after that the plants can't/won't take advantage of it. On The other hand, WSG makes the majority of it's growth from June till August. CSG has another short growth period late September into the November and with fescue, the end of November. While putting it on too early will cause the nutrients to penetrate past the root zone, in areas that actually have soil, putting it on too late will either waste it by not being available when needed. In worst case scenerio it will burn the grass. dun [/QUOTE]
