Use a starter fertilizer, though (nothing too high in nitrogen), and go with pelleted lime (not the powdered kind that will leave you looking like Casper the Ghost afterward).Water well when you're done or do this right before a rain.: Yeah, you can overseed and apply lime and fertilizer at the same time.

It might be better to apply the required lime as you fertilize in the course of the growing season, a little at a time. I really don't think it matters that much. Do fertilize in the spring and fall when you think it will be watered in by the ocassional rain fall.'ve heard it said that the lime can cause the nitrogen to outgas from the lawn (so you lose it). I've also heard it doesn't do that. :-). The difference seems to be that the theoretical chemistry says it will--and in a test tube, it will.
