Honestly many think growing grass is hard, but they are mistaken. It takes no rocket scientist to grow grass and even less to kill it, as I have proven for the last 48 years. Let's demystify the process. Note that for 28 years I managed a hardware store owned by my parents. We sold a full line of products which currently no one does anymore that I have found in the Morgantown area. Remember this is only the prescription for Morgantown so I had to turn to Amazon to find the products you will need. There are two plans one allows seeding in the spring and the other doesn’t.
Not seeding
This is the easy one because its so easy to kill the seed after you plant it. You will need to buy two types of fertilizer. First, Scotts Halts Crabgrass and Grassy Weed Preventer, used in the first application before the 1st of May in the spring. Secondly Scotts Turf Builder with no plus this or that just plain Scotts Turf Builder and this you will use in early September, October, and November. Note follow all the labels for how and what cautions to follow. Weed control comes from hose ready sprayers that say mystical things like lawn weed control. Look for that photo of the dandelion and again you just spray places with weeds and follow directions. This will give you a great lawn unless you misapply.
