seed it
throw down some 18-18-18 starter fert
sprinkle a little bit of peat moss to help hold the moisture in the new seeding grass
set sprinklers to a run time of 10 mins in the morning, noon, and night

completely agree!

I installed irrigation system on my lawn and it was the best thing ever, simply set a timer for the sprinklers.

This summer my lawn was a bit on the golden brown side, I simply just threw a ton of fertizler on it (Scotts) and watered it like crazy and now its a nice rich green!
