39-0-0 and dfw heat

I'm planning to apply (per tw's recommendation after my soil analysis) 39-0-0 to my celebration bermuda backyard this Saturday morning because we'll be leaving town and the puppy will be off of the lawn for a week. Do any of the knowledgeable out there have any advice for me applying it, particularly because it is so blazing hot here in Fort Worth? My only knowledge of fertilizing wisdom has to do with dryness and wetness.

Thanks,

Thomas

Is your lawn showing any drought stress at the moment?

And are you able to adequately water in the fertilizer?

Oops! Cut myself off! LOL!

If the grass is showing any drought stress, get that taken care of first. If you are unable to alleviate the drought stress, skip the fert.

If you do apply the fert., you'll need to water it in. You always should, but especially in high heat. If you can't water it in real well, skip it.
