Bucky's 2017 Spring Front/Side Reno

[g-man]

I searched and could not find your soil test analysis. Could you post the link?

The starter has phosphorus in it and you applied it 3 weeks ago. Too much of a good thing could be bad. Your young seeds are not out of sprout and pout phase and applying nitrogen is also not ideal http://aroundtheyard.com/forums2/viewto ... 945&start=

I would wait for any other soil amendments for at least a month and wait for sprout before more nitrogen. I searched and could not find info about adding potassium during germination. I hope Andy or someone from the ST6 could share their wisdom and recommendations.

I did my soil test last fall, before I found this site. I had it done through Penn State University, and received the results in the mail. I applied the starter fert 4 weeks ago. Which is why I felt like I was in the clear.

I did notice that I may have some common ragweed coming in - although I read that tenacity does not control it?
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Overall, I'm pleased with the results but missed about a foot on the edges of my yard due to the edgeguard on my spreader. When would you recommend putting seed down in these areas that are bare?

Here are day 70 pics. I've been doin light urea apps, and spot sprayed ragweed with Spectracide on May 28. Maintaining a deep and infrequent watering schedule. There is some nutsedge and crabgrass coming up, but just wondering if I could spot spray tenacity now, or wait until the weather cools off later on in the summer?

At day 70 and I'm guessing more than 4 mows, you should be able to use WBG + crabgrass preventer. There is no need to use tenacity for crabgrass. Do watch the weather. I avoid WBG if temps could approach 80F and/or the grass is stressed from drought conditions.
