Time for Corn Gluten Meal?

[TheFied]

I have bermudagrass. I used corn gluten meal (CGM) in February of this year and November of last year. Tomorrow is October 1. When should I put down my CGM this year? Should I wait until November or should I be doing it this month?

I'm waiting for a rain before I do anything, then I'll do the CG.

I have it on my calendar to apply this weekend. Should I wait for it to rain to to apply?

Good question. I want to do it soon as well.

i've always heard the time is Sept/Oct for the CG (i'm applying this week).

My question is, I bought the Concern CG that has 8-2-4 fertilizer in it as well, does that mean I do not need to fertilize now either?

In the past i've used ladybug 8-2-4, then a month later corn gluten. maybe i dont need to with this stuff.

Good time to fertilize as well? the Ladybug 8-2-4?

Hip me to Corn Gluten. What should my schedule be for St. Augustine? prepping for winter.

i don't follow the dates exactly, but typically I think you fertilize in Mar/April and Sept. and use pre-emergent (CG) in Feb and Oct? But what do I know, I still get dry patches in my st aug.

Rain expected this week

I am going to Lowe's today after work and buying a bag of the CGM they sell.

I am going to put it down tomorrow after work and hopefully Mother Nature gives me rain a couple of days later.

What he said. I use LadyBug 8-2-4 so it is the same ratio.
