centipede grass turning brown after fertilizing, HELP !!!!!!
I live in Wilmington, NC and have centipede grass, at the begining of the summer I fertilized the lawn and all was good, grass was green and healthy all summer long. Last Sunday which was bout 3 months after the 1st fertilizing I decided to fertilize again before the winter months hit. Anyway after fertilizing I didn't water the grass because I thought it was going to rain that night and I guess it didn't. On Tuesday I could see the grass starting to turn brown so I turned the sprinklers on around 5pm and since then it has rained a few times so the grass has had plenty of water. Is there anything I can do about the grass turning brown or should I wait it out and see if the water will help in the next days? I used Lesco fertilizer with a # count of 16-8-10 or something like that. Any helpful hints would be nice, thanks.
yeah I think I burned it because it was super hot that day I fertilized it. It is starting to look a little better now with all the rain and watering I have done. I mowed this past weekend and it looks a litter better so I think I may have cut off the top burn part. Should think about doing any other kind of fertilizing or just keep watering this like I have been?
Thanks
