Put weed and feed on it three weeks ago.
Just mowed twice this week. Spring is mostly weed control. It'll get better as I hate using products on my lawn, but we moved in just over a year ago and it had been loaded with weeds. After this year, I should be able to mostly hand pull the weeds.
Fall is when I do most work. I aerate, de thatch, and overseer thinner spots.
I was surprised by how easy it was to keep weeds down with a maintained yard. I need to pull maybe a dozen dandelions in the backyard each year. The city also doesn’t spray the fields for broadleaf anymore, so it’s rampant on streets.
