The soil is good and deep on my lot so I was not bringing anything in for the front. The rear was all sandy after the excavator removed all the rocks so I needed a new base to start from. Thanks again for the info.
You can get a nice root structure in sandy loam but you typically need to feed it more as the fert filters below the roots quickly until the lawn is well established.
