This is my maintenance plan for my baseball field. Any feedback on timing of applications and other maintenance suggestions would be appreciated.

I also try to have a monthly schedule of areating the field beginning in April through August.

check out turffiles. its a site run by NC State. They have some bermuda maintenance calenders for lawns and also some info on athletic fields. You may want to go with a non root inhibiting pre. I also try to stay away from granular weed products as they are less effective.
