Fertilized, then aerated?
Good job
u can use a liquid weed control anytime do not fertilize for another 4 to 6 weeks start cutting 2.5 to 3 inches no less clover is hard to get rid of but remember it stays green if the clover is just in a few areas u can use round up then topdress and over seed Icarii "JimMorrison" wrote in message ... you need you let your lawn recouperate, for the amount of time that the lawn was neglected.

Growing up in Brooklyn, NY didn't afford me much time to become familiar with lawncare. I have recently purchased a home in East TN. That home came with a beautiful lawn. Somehow I have managed in the span of 11 months to change all that (May - Mar). The lawn suffers from cutting too low, not fertilizing, and not controlling weeds. I have many weeds (clovers to be exact) throughout the lawn. I recently got advice to use Scotts Fertilizer w2 weed control. I followed all the directions and applied the product. Unfortunately I didn't check the weather report. About 16 hours after the application it rained. It has been 9 days since the application and I haven't noticed any change in the lawn. I read on the Scotts.com site that it is a good idea to core aerate your lawn, so yesterday I happened to see a neighborhood youth on a aeration campaign to raise $$. Therefore, I allowed him to aerate my entire lawn. Now I am concerned that aerating so soon after applying the fertilizer w/ weed control may not have been a good idea. Should I re-apply the fertilizer product sparingly to accomodate for the rain and aeration? Is there anything else that I can do to see results sooner? I am considering using a liquid spray weed kill product to deal with the weeds more immediately. What do you think? Any input on any of the above questions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, JG |
