Most lawns only require a spring and fall feeding, though stressed lawns can benefit from additional applications. Two recommended brands are Erth-Rite and WOW Plus. Bathing your lawn and gardens with a liquid seaweed is one of the best things you can do for them. Seaweed is loaded with trace elements like iron, magnesium and zinc which support plant health and root development, and help fight off fungal diseases. Monthly applications are recommended, but even fewer sprayings will provide strong benefits.
Lawns require about one inch of water once per week.
Light, frequent sprinklings encourage shallow roots. The best time to water the lawn is early in the day. Watering late in the day may encourage fungal invasion due to insufficient evaporation. Weeds can be removed by hand, or there are quality organic products which can control crabgrass, dandelions, lambs quarters, purslane and other weeds, by way of preventing the spread of feeder roots. Ideally, this should be done in the spring or early summer.
