kill unwanted in Aug..

aeration/scalding/hard rake or power rake ..seeding ..fert..sept..

best to consult your local seed and feed store for absolute best time when temps are in the 70's and ample water..either from well..house tap..or mother nature..


ya can aerate in the spring just to let the earth breathe...I only spot seed in the spring/summer ...

Hawyeye it can be somewhat different for your area given the beautiful springs and not so bitter hot summers.

again your local seed and feed store and or Scotts.com free # for area specs..

hope this helps..

Might be a little late for aerating in the Spring. Guess it depends on where you live. I'm sure OS will agree on not dethatching now but wait for the Fall.

Not too late for pre-emergent. That will green up your yard nice and fertilize.

OS had great advice for me and my yard has come in just awesome! I maintain my neighbors yard as well and both yards are the best in the neighborhood(I'm biased of course).

Thanks Old School!!!!
