Step 1: Proper Mowing
⅓ rule
Step 2: Proper Watering
One time a week, 1 full inch
Step 3: Proper Fertilizing - Want the easy method?
Apply milorganite 4 times per year.
A week or two before every holiday, birthday party, etc, so when family and friends are over the lawn is looking sharp!
Step 4: Preventing and Killing Weeds
Apply Step 1 (crabgrass preventer) when the forsythia blooms (or as soon after as you can).
Pre-emergent
Chickweed, Crabgrass
Weed B Gon Max (kill crabgrass)
Wait a few weeks
Weed B Gon (kill clover)
A few weeks later
Nutsedge killer (nutsedge)
Step 5: Overseed in the fall.

water it. I prefer applying a layer of peat moss on top.
