Feedback Wanted: 2022 Lawn Regiment (Chicago)

Ace B
2 years ago

Hi All - I'm looking for feedback on my lawn care plan for this year (see below).


Lawn Specs:

  • Residential
  • Partial Sun (leans full Sun)
  • Heavy foot and pet traffic
  • Current Seed: Mix (Kentucky Bluegrass, Tall Fescue, Perennial Rye, Fine Fescue)
  • Over seeded in Fall 2021 but again have dead spots along sidewalk edges from winter salting + various dead spots from pets
  • Broad leaf weeds, particularly dandelions are bad here in early summer due to the ammount of unkept lawns; insects / bugs not an issue

See Photos at Bottom:

  • Arial view of area
  • Current condition


Proposed 2022 Lawn Plan: (seeking feedback)

  • Apply April 21st (first stretch of highs above 60deg)

- Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Midwest Mix

- Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action Built for Seeding

  • Apply July 9 - Aug 5th (6-8 weeks after Spring seeding and fertilizing)

- Scotts Turf Builder SummerGuard Lawn Food with Insect Control

  • Apply September 2

- Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Midwest Mix

- Scotts Turf Builder Starter Food for New Grass

  • Apply Oct 14 - Nov 11

- Scotts Turf Builder WinterGuard Fall Lawn Food


Thoughts?

I'm not married to Scotts but I figured stay with one brand for once.

Thank so much!
