October
Coming out of September your lawn could be slowing as we move into cooler temps and possibly a lack of rain.
To Do List
- Apply Pre-Emergent if you missed September!! (See Prodiamine Calculator)✨ Temps are falling which means winter weeds will germinate soon
- You may want to do a soil test and adjust PH, as needed
- If you did an early split treatment of preemergent then you may be due your second application – keep a journal
- Treat for army worms/grubs if you see any activity or damage
- Apply your last round of preventative fungicide for the year
- Growth has probably slowed, but keep mowing regularly
- Spot spray or pull up any weeds that may have popped up
- Feed the soil – apply a monthly dose of soil amendments

Enjoy getting outside!
Even though I have a lot of how-to videos on yard care, the primary focus is to enjoy getting out in the yard! Whether you have a single push mower or a huge ride-on mower, just have fun! As a result, I hope you enjoy visiting our Bermuda Lawn Guide every month.
