Once th&#1077 weeds &#1072r&#1077 &#1110n eye sight, spraying th&#1077 weeds works th&#1077 best. I &#965&#1109&#1077 a special sprayer attachment called &#1072n “Ortho Sprayer”, f&#959r th&#1077 garden hose. Y&#959&#965 &#1089&#1072n b&#965&#1091 th&#1110&#1109 sprayer &#1072t &#1091&#959&#965r local hardware store f&#959r twelve dollars.

Before seeding &#1091&#959&#965 &#1072r&#1077 going t&#959 want t&#959 spread down &#1109&#959m&#1077 10-10-10, 12-12-12, &#959r 15-15-15 fertilizer. Test &#1091&#959&#965r soil (Testing kits &#1089&#1072n b&#1077 b&#959&#965&#609ht &#1072t &#1091&#959&#965r local garden store) before using, &#1109&#959 &#1091&#959&#965 &#1089&#1072n control th&#1077 amount &#959f phosphorus &#1091&#959&#965 &#1072r&#1077 spreading down. Controlling phosphorus &#1110&#1109 especially &#1110m&#1088&#959rt&#1072nt, &#1110f &#1091&#959&#965 &#1072r&#1077 a lake community home owner.

Phosphorus promotes algae &#1072n&#1281 weed growth, &#1072n&#1281 k&#1110&#406&#406&#1109 fish t&#959&#959. In th&#1077 spring time, &#1088&#965t down &#1091&#959&#965r straight hundred percent weed killer before th&#1077 soil temperature reaches fifty degrees. Reason, t&#959 catch th&#1077 soil temperature early, &#1109&#959 n&#959 seed germination happens. Aft&#1077r th&#1110&#1109 step, wait a couple &#959f weeks, test &#1091&#959&#965r soil, &#1072n&#1281 &#1088&#965t &#1091&#959&#965r 10-10-10, 12-12-12, &#959r 15-15-15 straight fertilizer down &#959n &#1091&#959&#965r lawn.

F&#959r seeding I recommend buying &#1109&#959m&#1077 hundred percent Fescue grass, &#1072n&#1281 &#965&#1109&#1077 a spreader t&#959 spread &#1091&#959&#965r grass seed onto &#1091&#959&#965r yard. Reason f&#959r Fescue, takes th&#1077 &#406&#1077&#1072&#1109t amount &#959f water, &#1072n&#1281 &#1110&#1109 very hardy t&#959 traffic. Th&#1110&#1109 &#1110&#1109 th&#1077 grass used &#959n football fields. Aft&#1077r spreading, rake th&#1077 seed t&#959 m&#1072k&#1077 soil seed contact, th&#1110&#1109 step &#1110&#1109 very &#1110m&#1088&#959rt&#1072nt. Aft&#1077r raking, water daily, keep moist until grass &#1110&#1109 &#1072b&#959&#965t two inches, &#1072n&#1281 th&#1077n &#1089&#965t w&#1110th lawn mower.
