 I am about to spray my lawn with weed killer. Does it matter if I put
this down first and then fertilize later?

Thanks

Dean

Actually what you did makes sense. Kill off weeds before feeding
them.

I think the one step process is because most of use want the convience
of saving time.

imho, I don't think there is a prob with what you are planning.

You can do it in any order you like. One won't interfere with the
other. Unless your whole lawn is full of weeds, I'd use a tank sprayer
and just spot treat. If it is full of weeds, then I'd use a weed n
feed product and do both at the same time.

I have a tow behind sprayer, and I want to get the whole lawn as there
are lots of weeds.

How long should I wait after reseeding to fertilize and spray weed killer?

I had some large bare spots that I prepped and seeded with Kentucky Blue
grass three weeks ago, but the weeds are growing faster than the sprouts.
Wash. DC area.
