What was the state of your yard before fertilizing? How often do you water? How much?

I'd say the yellow spots are still recuperating from previous mistreatment, including your bout of weed-n-feed. Your lawn will take time to recover and adapt to the better way of doing things. On a percentage of the recommended rate, how much of the ringer did you spread each time? Do you have pets, or are neighbors' pets allowed to roam this area? Large wildlife? Can you attach pics?

When you see a dog pee on your lawn, pour a lot of water on it right away and it won't burn/yellow spot.
 
Blood pressure normal? What do I change to get "magnificent"? Maybe this tiny ad?
