If broadleaf weeds are your problem this would be my go to product for a hose end spray. Has the basic ingredient list as others but it has Carfentazone added and you don't see that very often in retail products. https://www.fertilome.com/product/weed-free-zone-rts-32-oz

Hey Everyone,
Been fighting dollar spot and brown patch for the last 7 years since I bought the house. The yard looks good to most but I always wanted a yard that if you let it grow too long, it would bog a mower down. Tried every fertilizer and fungicide to get the lawn in shape. Last November and October put a heavy dose of Medina's organic fertilizer down. I then spread 10 yards of mulch on it weekend before last and have never seen the lawn looking so good. I actually have more St Augustine runners now than I ever have since I owned the home. Had two spots of brown patch that literally vanished after the compost was put down.
I am excited to see what the yard looks like in July. I am fortunate enough to be able to water out of a lake so water will not be an issue.
For anyone wondering, compost is a miracle.

You can drench them now. They should be leafed out and growing

Have you drenched before? Give it some time for the roots to uptake it and work. Once it does you're golden. Works great.

  The world is changed by your example, not by your opinion.

It dramatically improved mine after using it. This is the one I use. https://www.domyown.com/dominion-2l-termiticide-concentrate-p-1223.html

Going to apply my spring application of GrubEx and my monthly application of fertilizer on 4/29, as there is a forecast of some good rain in the DFW area on 4/30. If it works out the way it usually does, the good rainfall forecast for 4/30 wont materialize and I'll be stuck manually watering it in, but what the heck its worth a shot.
