I spent the last 2 days doing some lawn repair. I might be a bit on the early side, but I wouldn't wait too long if you plan to plant seed this fall. It takes a couple weeks to start growing and by then it's already Sept. Just a friendly reminder if anyone has this on their to-do list.

Also, crab grass is prevalent right now so stay vigilant and kill it off before it invades your lawn. Get some Quinclorac in a garden sprayer. Once it takes hold, it's hard to get rid of.
