In Houston, specifically

On Houston's heavy gumbo clay, slow-release feeding through spring and fall builds a dense lawn that crowds out weeds. Over-feeding in peak summer can burn St. Augustine, so timing matters.

Fertilization: common questions

How many times a year should a lawn be fertilized?+

Most Houston lawns do best on 4–6 timed applications across the growing season.

Will fertilizing stop my weeds?+

A thick, well-fed lawn is your best weed defense, but pair it with weed control for problem yards.
