What Hopewell lawns are like
Hopewell sits on sandy coastal-plain soil that drains fast and dries out by July. Tall fescue works with a little irrigation; bermuda and zoysia work without it and are common on the sunniest lots. If you already have a bermuda lawn, keep it - the crews we match here mow it low and it will be the greenest lawn on the street in August. Fall aeration matters less than in Chesterfield's clay; summer watering matters more.
Timing in Hopewell
The whole program hinges on two windows: pre-emergent must be down before soil temperatures hold 50 F for several days - early March in a normal Chesterfield year, late February in a warm one - and the heavy nitrogen belongs in September, October and November, not spring. Spring feeding pushes top growth that fescue can't sustain in July.
