Many people fertilize their lawn too late with too much nitrogen. They wrongly call this practice “winterizing.”

If you’ve done a good job fertilizing your lawn during the growing season (spring and summer), there’s no need to apply more fertilizer now.

Many people have bought into the idea of "winterizing" their lawns, but it is not a good practice to apply a high-nitrogen fertilizer late in the season. Excessive nitrogen can cause tender new growth in our warm-season grasses, only to result in cold injury during winter.

If the lawn has not been adequately fertilized during the growing season, it may benefit from additional potassium. But the only sure way to know if the potassium level is inadequate is to have your soil tested, otherwise you’re guessing.

If you insist on winterizing (fertilizing beyond summer months), use a fertilizer with low nitrogen (represented by the first number in the fertilizer analysis), but with some potassium (the last number in the analysis). Look for a lawn fertilizer with 5 percent or less nitrogen but with potassium such as 5-2-14, 5-0-22, 0-0-7, etc. Remember, more potassium than nitrogen.

The potassium needs to be applied while the grass is actively growing. After the lawn is dormant, much of the fertilizer that could have benefited the lawn is wasted.

With normal spring/summer lawn fertilization, mid-September is the latest date to fertilize our warm season grasses such as zoysia and St. Augustine in North Florida.

But with centipedegrass, it’s best to not fertilize after August.

For research-based information on maintaining a Florida lawn, contact your local University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences County Extension Office or visit http://hort.ifas.ufl.edu/yourfloridalawn.

Larry Williams is an agent at the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences Extension office in Crestview.

BAKER —The Okaloosa County Branch NAACP will hold a town hall meeting in Baker to address the racial tensions and issues that have plagued the community for years.

The meeting is 2 p.m. Oct. 19 at Lebanon Missionary Baptist Church, 1288 Washington Ave., Baker, under the leadership of Pastor Nathaniel Sledge Jr. The community is invited and encouraged

to attend.

According to Branch President Lewis Jennings, “There have been a number of racial incidents happening in Baker that suggest we need to take a more proactive approach to assess the extent of problem and explore ways we as an organization can help combat the problem.

"We (the NAACP) are not interested in stirring up more tensions, rather we are focused on helping the community understand their problems, define ways to address them, and offering hard work to help ease ongoing and/or future tensions.

To that end I will be working with local pastors, community leaders and others around the area to bring to the table all the resources we have at our disposal," Jennings said.

The Okaloosa County Branch NAACP has been chartered since 1948 and celebrates more than 71 years of community service in civil rights advocacy throughout the county.

For more information contact the NAACP at naacpfwb@naacp.gccoxmail.com.

Remember back in the halcyon days when people actually listened to radio music stations to request songs? While I know some of you are still radio junkies, I feel as though I haven’t touched that dial in years. Nevertheless, I do indeed miss calling in a request and excitedly standing by, waiting to jam to the first few notes of a beloved pop or rock song.

The Crestview Library may not be able to provide songs on request like radio stations and streaming services can (although we do have a decent CD collection), but even so, we can certainly take book requests!

There are numerous ways we can procure that elusive next novel in your favorite series or that eccentric how-to on an unusual hobby. Firstly, if you’re a cardholder (it’s free for Okaloosa County residents), we are part of a wonderful group known as the Okaloosa County Public Library Cooperative.

What does that mean for you? Your card has the power of six libraries in one! You can not only visit and use your card at all of the Okaloosa locations, but you also have the ability to place holds and pick up books from other libraries without ever having to leave your home city.

Secondly, if for some crazy reason an Okaloosa library doesn’t have a book you would like, you have the option to put in a purchase request with your home library. Unless it’s for the 7 millionth copy of Delia Owens’ "Where the Crawdads Sing," your request will likely be obliged.

Lastly, if neither of the first two options work out, most of us offer Inter-Library Loan services to acquire materials from all across the country.

Suffice to say, we may not be running a “total request live” radio or music video program, but your library has a wealth of literature and resources just a request away from your fingertips. We are here to serve you! 

Emily Knie is the Crestview Public Library's adult services librarian and interim assistant director.
