Time to seed lawns now and through mid September
Seed lawns from now to mid September as the best period for new establishment and repair. Soil tests with Virginia Tech Extension help determine fertility and lime or fertilizer needs. Choose drought tolerant varieties for sun or shade, prepare soil with plowing and disking, then fertilize and lightly cover seeds. Mulch with straw to hold moisture. Early fall fertilizes Kentucky Bluegrass and Fescue to store root reserves for summer. Local VPI Extension Office provides fertilizing guidance.
