[quote=Anonymous]Do not combine grass seed and fertilizer at the same time.  Spot grass seed should be fine.

If you’re looking to improve the look
And health of your lawn then starting with fertilizer and fall weed feed is a great start.

Do it again in late winter and early Spring.

The following year…I prefer to let the real
Magic happen between fall and spring because that’s when your grass is the most healthy.

Very late summer or early Fall.  Dethatch and rake up. Put a light helping of milorganite down and Maybe put down some Spectracide concentrate spray in a light vs liberal application to kill anything lurking.  Monitor to ensure grass still healthy as dethatching can take its toll.

Wait two weeks

Double or triple pass core aeration followed by overseed.

Make sure you have two or three Weeks before long freeze or frost cycles.

I’m a huge fan of Scott’s because it’s easy and works and is way cheaper than a service.  Everything you buy has filler, it’s just a question of how much.  That being said I tend to apply a fall weed and feed or winter guard in December and again in February combined with a pre emergent. This yields phenomenal results if you get a wet winter as it soaks in well.

I do another Scott’s round in may or June with milorganite one or two times during the summer.  And, spectracide as necessary.

I have the best lawn in a neighborhood of 200 half acre+ lots, starting from weeds.  Countless neighbors have asked if I could do similar to theirs but I don’t have the time.  Golf course level striping. [/quote]
