Truth N’ Turf August 2013 Q & A

A question about Starting Fall renovation now for Cool Season Turf- answered by Steve, Glenn’s right hand:

Is it too soon for me to get going on a problem spot in my lawn?  We had some new concrete installed at our street corner and it is just a patch of weedy grass and bare spots.  The rest of my grass has some weeds but it’s not too bad.  When should I hire someone to aerate?

Take advantage of the cool weather and spray any existing weeds you may have., You must wait a least two weeks before making arrangements with your lawn care professional to have the yard aerated and over-seeded starting in last week of August or September. Most yards should be in above average shaped based on the summer we have had so take advantage of the great conditions to make your yard even better.
