When is the best time to apply pure nitrogen to a lawn?
I am in Oklahoma, regular bermuda. Just wanted to look into getting it a bit greener. It looks fine now, I just wanted to see how green I could get it.Partly depends on what type of grass you have, but curious, did you get some sort of lawn sample that told you that you were low on N, but in a good range for everything else? Nothing wrong with applying pure N, but there might be better options depending on the makeup of your soil.

Sprinklers then lawn, cuz won’t the lawn get torn up with fixing the sprinkler system?If it were you and in need of significant soil improvement, seeding, etc on say 1/2 of your lawn (other half is pretty good, just needs some leveling, overseeding, weed control), but also needing the sprinkler system fixed (1200 was the quote 2 years ago for the whole front and back, just looking to do front but it's 2/3 of the area), would you:
A) take care of the lawn first, then sprinkler
Or
B) Sprinklers then lawn??
This is the front side thats in rougher shape.. other side of the driveway is largely pretty decent

Get a herbicide with 2,4-D in it. HD, wal mart etc will have a hose end ready to use container. Some may have dicamba and or meccoprop too which is good. Just check the label to make sure it’s compatible with your grassWhat is the best way to help get rid of dandelions? I try to dig them up as I see them. Round up kills the grass around them. Someone told me I cut it too short which makes the grass lose the fight easier. Is this true?
That's what I thought, plus watering the new grass daily/weekly would be a PITA with the oscillating Sprinklers I have, but a landscaper told me the other way around.. maybe he just wanted the project and $ lolSprinklers then lawn, cuz won’t the lawn get torn up with fixing the sprinkler system?

I deal with them by going out at night and giving their entrances a good shot of Sevin.Mowed after golf and made damn sure to not go anywhere near the yellow jacket nest. I need to burn it out, but it's right against a fence post.

Bag. We have to in our neighborhood but I like to anyway.When mowing, do you guys bag, spray, or mulch the grass clippings?
And do you trim before or after?
Really!!! Can’t believe they make you bag. How would they know if you mulched? I guess it keeps the thatch down a lot though.Bag. We have to in our neighborhood but I like to anyway.
After I’m done cutting I edge.
I’m sure they wouldn’t, but we have some larger lawns in this neighborhood and of people didn’t bag and blew around or left clumps it would be noticeable.Really!!! Can’t believe they make you bag. How would they know if you mulched? I guess it keeps the thatch down a lot though.
Ive been trimming before I mow so I don’t have to clean up as much after trimming last.
Powder. There are these "puffers" you can buy to apply the stuff into holes and cracks.Powder or liquid?
