Weed & Feed Time
Yesterday I put out my early Spring application of Scotts weed & feed for my St. Augustine grass. I really like this type of fertilizer because it helps knock out the weeds before we even get started. Some weeds always survive, but it makes it a whole lot easier to get rid of what is left.
