Over the past month, I’ve worked hard to try to improve the lawn. Along with all the normal maintenance tasks (fertilizer, dethatching, aerating, and mowing) I’ve re-leveled certain parts of the law, and planted a lot of grass seed and patch filler.
It’s a work in progress, but it’s slowly coming along. For at least the early part of the spring, I’m mowing using a traditional push mower instead of a riding mower or zero turn, in an effort to keep the new grass as healthy as possible.
