Dethatch from October til may. I’ve used Adam’s earth several times and it’s been great. Local guy not pushy. We are very happy with him

No shortage of OPINIONS. Am proud to declare my lawn can't read. Dethatching opens up the soil and can allow weeds to grow. Empire Zoysia a hot weather grass starts to grow around April. We all suffer from spring fever BUT, you should put down your first application of fertilzer in last week of march first week or two in April. Too early and you are encouraging the early growing weeds. The pros are not busy in October so looking for income will do it too early.
