Amendment Schedule
NOTE: I use natural fertilizers that are slower to activate and have much less nitrogen than the commercially available fertilizers. I also use corn gluten meal for my pre-emergent which acts as a mild source of nitrogen. If you use chemical based fertilizers and/or pre-emergent, you should delay the first application until you see quite a bit of your turf grass turning green under the dead portions. You probably also should fertilize every 8 weeks rather than every 6 weeks.
