Not only does it provide essential lawn food, but it also helps control weeds like dandelion, henbit, and other grassy weeds that can quickly take over your turfgrass. If you\u2019re dealing with unwanted weeds and brown patches on your lawn, a weed-and-feed can be the solution you need, especially during early spring when weeds start to sprout.<\/p>\n<p>However, applying these products to St. Augustine grass requires a bit of know-how. Since many broadleaf weed killers can harm this type of grass, it\u2019s crucial to choose the right product and use the proper technique. In fact, only a few herbicides on the market are rated to treat St. Augustine without harming it, but most of them are weed-control products only \u2014 not weed-and-feed products.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In this article, I\u2019ll discuss how to apply weed-and-feed products to your St. Augustine grass to keep your lawn healthy and lush.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"jlvid_container\"><iframe title=\"Weed &amp; Feed For St Augustine Grass, Zoysia and Centipede \/\/ How To Choose Weed N Feed\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fCBbrSNPtKI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/noscript>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-st-augustine-grass\">What Is St Augustine Grass?<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re living in a warm, southern climate like Florida, St. Augustine grass is a good choice for your lawn. Its lush, green look and ability to thrive in the heat make it a go-to for homeowners wanting a vibrant yard that can handle those scorching summers. This grass creates a thick, carpet-like lawn that\u2019s as attractive as it is resilient.<\/p>\n<p>St. Augustine grass is known for giving your yard that rich, dark green color everyone loves. It spreads easily, thanks to its horizontal stems, which help it fill in quickly and form a dense lawn. While it loves soaking up the sun, it can also manage in partially shaded spots, making it versatile for different areas of your yard. However, keep in mind that it\u2019s not as tough as other grasses like fescue or bluegrass in withstanding cold weather.<\/p>\n<p>Maintaining your St. Augustine lawn doesn\u2019t have to be complicated. A balanced lawn fertilizer, like Scotts Turf Builder, can keep it looking healthy and green. Just be sure to watch out for common lawn weeds like crabgrass, chickweed, and dollarweed, which can sneak in if you\u2019re not careful.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-weed-and-feed-basics\">Weed and Feed Basics <\/h2>\n<p>Unless you live in a frost-free climate, you should stop using any fertilizers at least six weeks before your average first frost date. <a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/lawn-garden\/guides\/choosing-grass-for-your-climate\/\">St. Augustine is a warm-season grass<\/a> that goes dormant for the winter, and you don\u2019t want to stimulate growth that front can kill.<\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-56a6055b\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-331aab2e\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-331aab2e\">\n<p>I recommend spring and summer applications of weed-and-feed products for these types of lawns.<\/p>\n<p>The most common herbicide for St. Augustine lawns is Atrazine. Simply put, Atrazine is nasty stuff. It is a possible cancer-inducing chemical that could also cause birth defects, and it shows up in alarming levels in drinking water. One look at the stern warnings on the label should make you think twice about putting it on your lawn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-42df2ccf\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-42df2ccf\">\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-811460ec\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"696\" height=\"435\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-811460ec lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"person applying weed killer to a lawn\" title=\"person applying weed killer to a lawn\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-59.png 696w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-59-300x188.png 300w\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-59.png\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"696\" height=\"435\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-811460ec lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-59.png\" alt=\"person applying weed killer to a lawn\" title=\"person applying weed killer to a lawn\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-59.png 696w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-59-300x188.png 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>A healthy lawn is naturally weed-resistant. If you have a widespread weed problem, focus on keeping your lawn healthy or on replacing the unhealthy lawn with groundcover or planting beds.<\/p>\n<p>Weed-and-feed products contain both fertilizer and herbicide in one formulation. The combination can provide convenience but needs proper precautions.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-when-to-avoid-weed-and-feed\">When To Avoid Weed and Feed<\/h2>\n<p>Weed-and-feed products contain fertilizer and herbicides. The combination works well for <a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/lawn-garden\/guides\/how-to-revive-st-augustine-grass\/\">reviving St. Augustine grass<\/a> but carries some risk. Here are reasons to avoid putting weed-and-feed on St. Augustine grass:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>It\u2019s fall or winter.<\/strong> The fertilizer component can stimulate growth that is susceptible to frost damage. Instead, reserve weed-and-feed for the active growing seasons of spring and summer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>It\u2019s six weeks or less before your average first frost date.<\/strong> Find your average first frost date from the Farmer\u2019s Almanac, and don\u2019t apply a weed-and-feed product in this six-week window. This way, you give your grass time to harden off before cold weather arrives.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t apply during a drought or heat stress. <\/strong>Fertilizers can push growth that requires more water than the lawn is getting. This practice leads to grass burnout.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t apply it if you\u2019re overseeding.<\/strong> The herbicide component will inhibit the germination of grass seed. Wait until new grass is established before applying weed-and-feed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/lawn-garden\/guides\/how-to-spread-st-augustine-grass\/\"><strong>spread on newly laid sod<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong> The chemicals can leach into the soil under the sod and inhibit root establishment. I recommend you let new sod take root for four to six weeks before applying a weed-and-feed product.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<section id=\"th-tips-block_af626f71dbb23f4497035cd6754435eb\" class=\"th-block th-tips\" style=\"color: ; background-color: ;\">\n<div class=\"thTipsContainer\">\n<p>Today\u2019s Homeowner Tips<\/p>\n<p>Proper timing is important when using these combination products on St. Augustine grass. Pay attention to weather patterns and the health of your lawn.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>The above timing recommendations are specific to warm-season grasses like St. Augustine. Cool-season grasses may have different guidelines, so always check the product label.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-problems-with-atrazine\">Problems With Atrazine<\/h2>\n<p>Atrazine, a herbicide often included in weed-and-feed products for St. Augustine grass, poses several risks that make it worth avoiding. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) labels Atrazine as a potential carcinogen and endocrine disruptor. Research links high exposure to increased cancer rates in people.<\/p>\n<p>This chemical lingers in soil and groundwater, leading to contamination of drinking water sources nationwide. Moreover, Atrazine runoff contributes to toxic algae blooms in ponds, lakes, and other surface waters, posing a danger to pets and wildlife. Although many countries have banned Atrazine, it remains legal in the United States, though some states have imposed partial bans or restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, I transitioned away from Atrazine to safer options, such as corn gluten meal, vinegar, and plant-based herbicides. These have less environmental impact.<\/p>\n<p>Given the health and environmental risks of Atrazine, avoiding it may be the wisest choice for you, your lawn, and your community. Talk to your lawn care company about chemical-free options or products without Atrazine.<\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ab36f766\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-38205c33\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-937531cf\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-937531cf\">\n<p>Best DIY Lawn Service<\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-2f6977af\">\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-83148aee\"><a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/go\/sunday-lawn-care\/?subId1=other-tho\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"122\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" class=\"gb-image-83148aee lazyload\" alt=\"Sunday Lawn Care Logo\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Sunday-Lawn-Care-Logo.png 400w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Sunday-Lawn-Care-Logo-300x92.png 300w\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Sunday-Lawn-Care-Logo.png\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"122\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Sunday-Lawn-Care-Logo.png\" class=\"gb-image-83148aee lazyload\" alt=\"Sunday Lawn Care Logo\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Sunday-Lawn-Care-Logo.png 400w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Sunday-Lawn-Care-Logo-300x92.png 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\"\/><\/noscript><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><a class=\"gb-button gb-button-59e5fba2 provider-button gb-button-text\" href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/go\/sunday-lawn-care\/?subId1=other-tho\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><strong><strong>GET ESTIMATE<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-2cec8167 border-dash\">\n<p><strong><strong>Limited Time<\/strong><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>$20 Off Smart Lawn Plan (SUNDAY20TOH)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-maintaining-a-healthy-lawn\">Maintaining a Healthy Lawn<\/h2>\n<p>The best defense against weeds is a healthy, thriving lawn. Here are some tips:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mow your lawn at the proper height for your grass type. Proper mowing height encourages deeper root growth. Keep mower blades sharp for clean cuts.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Water thoroughly and infrequently to encourage deep root growth. Avoid frequent, light watering. Deep watering promotes stronger grass plants.<\/li>\n<li>Dethatch and aerate your lawn annually to alleviate soil compaction. Thatch removal improves air and nutrient flow to the soil.<\/li>\n<li>Apply a slow-release fertilizer two to three times a year. I recommend natural organic options like organic fertilizers break down slowly for steady feeding.<\/li>\n<li>Overseed bare patches in spring and fall. Cover the new seed with straw. Seeding fills in thin and bare areas.<\/li>\n<li>Raise your mowing height before the summer heat and lower it for fall. Adjusting height helps the grass stay healthy in changing weather.<\/li>\n<li>Apply corn gluten meal in spring to deter new weed seedlings. Corn meal inhibits root formation in emerging weeds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With proper cultivation, your lawn can out-compete weeds. Then spot treatments or hand-weeding may be all you need for problem areas.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-final-thoughts\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n<p>Using weed-and-feed products on your St. Augustine grass is a great way to keep your lawn looking lush and healthy. Timing is everything \u2014 spring and summer are your best bets for applying these products because your grass is actively growing and can benefit the most. Just be sure to skip the weed-and-feed in late fall or winter. Additionally, avoid using it during droughts or extreme heat to keep from stressing your lawn.<\/p>\n<p>To keep weeds at bay, it\u2019s important to maintain a healthy lawn. Regular mowing, proper watering, and the right fertilizing practices are key. Don\u2019t forget about dethatching and aerating your lawn, and overseeding when needed to help fill in any bare spots. With consistent care and the right products used at the right times, you\u2019ll keep your lawn in top shape and enjoy a beautiful yard all year long.<\/p>\n<div id=\"hm-faq-block_17d99b239de69520970a4fbdfbb10b81 \" class=\"hm-faq hm-faq--two-column\">\n<h2 class=\"hm-faq__title exclude-from-toc\" data-toc-text=\"\">FAQs About Applying Weed and Feed to St. Augustine Grass<\/h2>\n<div class=\"hm-faq__item\">\n<h3 class=\"faqQuestion accordion mb-0\">\n                        When is the best time to apply weed-and-feed?                    <\/h3>\n<div class=\"faqAnswer panel\">\n<p>For St. Augustine grass, apply weed-and-feed during the active growing season of spring and summer.
