    Definitely better late than never - although if it were autumn you should use a feed formulated for autumn, rather than now which is the growing season - but it isn't autumn so go ahead now with a good scarifying/aeration followed by a general lawn feed or weed & feed type formulation, following the instructions on the pack re when to apply/water.cut etc.

    Thanks Verdun -  I meant to say that - more lawns ruined by scalping than almost anything else - apart from anything else, those bare patches of soil are an invitation to weed seeds to make themselves at homeimage
