I’d prob focus on building your soil with carbon (granular Humic acid, biochar). Fertilize well after the green up phase either in mid April or early May. You may want to think about spoon feeding the lawn (monthly fertilizer apps) but you have to keep Nitrogen levels low doing this on centipede. Too much N harms centipede

Almost two decades of landscaping and lawn care between Mississippi and Louisiana and I’ve always tried to stress this to people. Centipede AKA what I jokingly call hood grass. Is best left alone. The less you do to it the better it looks. So many people want to pre emerge and dump fertilizer on it and year after year I laugh when I tell them I won’t do it and then either they do it themselves or hire a “professional” to come and fertilizer and then they have a have dead yard full of thatch and weeds. Aerate, water, over seed and fungicide is the most I will ever do to centipede.

Your information is helping me but for the opposite reason. My ZP (Zosia Palisades) has been slowly taking over the C (centipede). Your information about < 1.5lbs/K Nitrogen being better for Centipede gave me cause to increase my rate to 3lbs/K. This along with little to no manual watering (ZP is more drought tolerant) is showing a more aggressive movement into the centipede. One other thing that I think are contributing is cutting it lower (ZP has deeper root system than C). My intention next year is to use 2,4-D in varying strengths along the intersecting grasses to see the differences. I've already found that the C will yellow using the 2,4-D instructions but not the ZP. I can't tell at this time whether is has stunted eithers growth.

Yes a few years ago but I don’t think it’s a good option for centipede because of high Phosphorus and zero Potassium. Also don’t like the fact that it is made from biosolids which probably contains toxic metals.

It seems to be the common trend that centipede doesn't like nitrogen and I beg the difference. I revived a wrecked centipede lawn at my new home 2 years ago and going on the third season now. Lessons I learned are: centipede love early feeding (temp 45-65 degrees), spoon feed only, and watch the weather. I fertilize before the rain hit and my first fertilizing of the year is on/around St Patrick Days. After that, very light feeding but i feed it every 2 weeks. Water is key. My centipede needs water 2-3 times a week. Peak heat of summer (june-august) I water 4-5 times a week. Mowing is also important: 1-2 times a week. The lawn is deep green and thick and super healthy. I even feed it iron for the deep green look. Definitely stand out color when it goes dark green. Centipede doesn't like heavy traffic or leaving clumps of grass clippings after you mow. So i bag everything. So far, that's what's working well for me. If you feed it often, you have to water it often and mow often since they grow fast when stimulated.

@CentipedeCentralLawnCare

This is the time of year for grubs. If they are spraying insect killer it is only going to kill surface insects, not grubs which are under the soil line eating the roots. I would suggest getting a granular grub killer (Bayer Advanced makes a good 24-hour killer). What happens is the June beetles lay larvae in the soil and these become grubs which eat the roots of the grass and cause dead spots. If this isn’t the cause it’s either fungus or other insects. If the HOA is using a harsh weed killer often that could harm the grass but I’m leaning toward grubs because of the time of year. If you haven’t fertilized you could try a weed and feed that I recommend. Check out the video I did on weed and feed
