LAWN IMPROVEMENT
A little while ago, May 1, 2014, I posted about the lazy way to rejuvenate a lawn , telling whoever read the post what I do to improve my lawn. I'm not saying it's the best way to go about it, but when your energy is limited, when you have nothing much to work with but a thin layer of soil over rock underneath the lawn, it might be the only way apart from digging out all the rock (go for it if you have the resources or energy) and starting afresh. I am relatively pleased with the result considering the shabby way I go about it. The moss is now dead and I have raked it out. The weeds are gone, at least I cannot see any. The seed which I scattered over the grass and watered in has now germinated and thickened the lawn to a great extent. While this is a good result, I am not happy with the way that the thicker bladed grass is trying to get a hold on the lawn. I know that one way to combat this is to rake it upright (it is inclined to lie flat)...
