Hi,
Around my house, I have 2 separate lawn environments, neither of which is doing too well.
Front yard -
Open, no trees directly over it, but one end gets shade most of the day this time of year. Seems to grow grass OK in spring, but the drought last year did a number on it... significant parts are still brown, and moss has taken over parts of it... and dandelions are rampant. I'd like to overseed it, fertilize it, and kill the dandelions... but I'm not sure on timing.
Should I go on a campaign of killing weeds and such now, seed in April, fertilize in may? any product recommendations?
The back yard is under a fir tree... a shady area grass seemed to do OK, but the drought killed it, and I see no evidence of it returning. I'm not sure what to do back here!
any good reading you know of on this stuff?
