I don't think a lot of you guys live in my plant zone, but curious what ya'll are doing for fall lawn care. Seems like my whole lawn was overridden by crab grass this year and it's been losing ground to creeping charlie, too. Towards the end of summer, I found a series of YouTube vids from a guy calling himself The Lawn Care Nut (LCN). https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSj...hLKO-ISsrHE7ng The videos can be a little annoying at times, but it seems like he has a lot of legit information.
I've been waiting for rain to soften up the ground a little before I do the core aeration and I want to overseed, too. I may have to break down and get some sprinklers, though. I followed the LCN's advice on killing creeping charlie with borax (I've seen it elsewhere, too) and my test patch seems to be doing well. I've got a lot more to treat.
Hopefully next year I'll get the pre-emergent down at the right time.
