Mason sand. No mix. Early in the season so it can recuperate (depending on how much is used), but not too early. The grass needs to be growing vigorously. I apply a heavy dose of Urea before leveling.

I guess I’ll have to give it a shot again since I can’t find what I’m looking for. The last time I tried straight sand it washed away but I’ll pray for no down pours this time, as I type this it’s pouring outside so maybe that’s a bad sign who knows.

Is this area pretty flat or sloped? If sloped you need to take a slower approach and do it over a few applications, probably over a couple seasons. Like Mickey mentioned. Make sure your growth is banging. Apply some N prior to. Pick a week where the 10 day forecast doesn't show a washout. Water it in well after you do it. Not to runoff but to get it settled down from the canopy. If things look good I plan on doing my backyard Memorial Day weekend.

Mine is lazy and still sleeping.

Ol Thumper, don't be afraid to scalp well beyond Spring - mild (some refer to this as "height-of-cut reset") to wild. I've gone full scalp well into Summer.

I'm lazy, dropped 100# of triple 13 and 50# of 21-0-0 on March 1st.

Ok boys. It’s go time. Let’s get a how it started and how it ended season going. Here’s my start. No applications yet. Starting next weekend.
