Fertilforce- Q & A
Grass seed can be planted in either spring or fall. However, fall is the best time because the ground is warm and there is less weed competition. By far the best time is late August to mid-September. This allows time for the seed to germinate and grow, for the grass to be cut once, and for an application of fertilizer to be applied before the first hard frost.

When is the best time to fertilize Bermuda grass?

Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQ
That depends! In pastures that have no cool season grasses in them like ryegrass, fertilizing from Mid April to the first of May would be recommended. If the pasture has ryegrass, fertilizing for the Bermuda growth should take place May 1 to June 1. If fertilized earlier than this the ryegrass will use up that fertilizer before the Bermuda has a chance to begin growing rapidly. If fall forage is needed, fertilizing Bermuda in late august can provide high quality grazing well into December.

What is the best temperature for Bermuda grass?

Jacobsen Golf & Turf: Dr. Milt F.A.Q.
Remember, in the Spring, high ambient air temperatures promote crown and leaf development at the expense of the root system in Bermuda grass. When soil temperatures rise above 65°F (18 C) root growth starts. The plant is able to pick up appropriate nutrients and access deeper soil-water resources. When soil temperatures are above 65°F , more aggressive plant growth can be met with more aggressive cultural practices.
