It is not recommended to aerate your lawn in the summer. You will get the most benefits when you aerate your lawn in the spring.
what is the best grass seed to use on your lawn to regrow grass after a cold freeze killed 45% of the lawn. Depending on what part of the country you live in, this may be the time to go with xeroscape, that does not need watering.
It depends on what is best for your lawn. Most lawns need to be aerated regularly. Whether or not you need to that depends on the type of grass you have in your lawn and whether or not it is healthy. Creeping grasses like bent grass, and St Augustine grasses need to be thatched regularly. Thatching helps to remove dead material from your soil. Not every lawn needs to be thatched. Thatching is also called power raking or dethatching. The easiest way to do this is with a machine called a thatcher or a power rake. Aerating is easier and often cheaper. If I had to choose between the two, I would probably choose to aerate. The exception would be if I had more then 3/4 inch worth of thatch on my lawn. If this was the case, I would thatch my lawn immediately.
Spring and fall are the best times to aerate cool season grasses (bluegrass, ryegrass) (with fall being the best)Warm season grasses (bermuda, zoysia) should be aerated in mid-spring to summer after they are out of dormancy. (fall is not recommended for aerating warm season grasses)

A seed time is the time that you currently have coming into the meet so your best time.
Aeration isn't necessary but in order to have the best and healthiest lawn possible it is highly recommended. Aeration loosens the soil allowing more water and fertilizer to reach the roots, allows more oxygen into the ground/root area, allows compost to reach the root area, breaks down thatch that accumulates throughout the year in the lawn and promotes better root health. Your lawn will still look healthy if you don't aerate it for a year or two but as time goes on the lack of aeration will show through brown patches, patchy areas lacking grass (if the roots are unhealthy natural seeding and spread will be inhibited). If you have a lawn tractor you can easily purchase an aerator that will attach to it and aerate it every spring before fertilizing. If you don't have a lawn tractor there are some hand aerators that are very easy to use also.
I am a swimmer, if you are talking about a best time at a previous meet...then yes that would probably be your seed time depending on if your coach would put you in at your best time. Hope that i helped! (:
Spring time is always best. Awaite the warmer eather

Rainy season is the best time to transplant seed. During rainy season, there is a lot of humidity, hence the seed sprouts will get required good quality of water for a better growth.
When performing work on your lawn, it is wise to join together tasks that can be done at the same time. For example you can aerate your lawn as well as apply lime at the same time. Finish the job with raking away dead clippings and dirt clods from aeration. Enrich the grass by applying fertilizer or herbicides according to product directions. Water your lawn well when in need and adjust for drought. When the lawn is in need of cutting, be sure to cut at least a 1/3 of the lawn's length with a sharp bladed mower. Also mow the yard in a pattern, this helps to ensure even growth. Trim the edges of your lawn with the appropriate equipment and maintain weeds to upkeep your lawn in all areas.
