Hi,
When is the best time to fertilize? I also seed some bare spots, which should I do first?
Thank-you,
Ellen

I'd overseed first then wait until after you've mowed the new grass twice before you fertilize. This will give the new turfgrass a chance to establish a good root system. If you seed now you should be able to feed your lawn in April. Best wishes with your lawn.
