pics if you can
1. remove old grass and weeds
2.Rototill the dirt 6 to 12 inches use either (gypsum are sometype of soil Amend)
3.keep the soil watered and wait for weeds to grow. kill them with some round up or grass and weed killer of your choice
4. now is the time "if you want" to put in irrigation
5.go to your local home improvment store find out what grass grows the best in the N.O.
6. have sod deliverd (make sure you have plenty of people) the more the better.
Rent a yard roller to roll over sod (smoothes out the bumps and make contact with the soil)
7. keep sod moist and water at lease 3 times a day

Throw down Scott's weed and feed (following instructions as to dampness of weeds, leaving it on them, no rain in next few days, etc.). That will kill most of the weeds. Wait about 3 days or so and throw down seed. Wait another couple of days and mow weed lawn down to as low as your lawnmower can handle. Continue seeding periodically and apply weed and feed again in about 6 weeks. Not perfect results, but fairly good (what I'm doing) and also fairly economical and fairly lazy.
