As a lawn care professional, Doug Mattox spends his days making home lawns more beautiful. When it was time to renovate his own 10,500-square foot lawn, he turned to seed, fertilizer, and nutrients from ATS.

Doug’s process is outlined below with pictures to show the transformation. The renovation also included daily watering.

  1. Aerated the lawn to prepare it for seed
