Although I wrote about "green" homes in my last post, I thought I might address some green lawns and getting yards in shape for the spring or, of course, getting ready to sell. I was looking at my own lawn and I have a lovely bare patch that looks like aliens landed and burned a whole in my yard with their space ship. Actually, someone left a wading pool filled with water too long in one spot, the sun got hot, and you can guess the rest of the story but aliens sound ever so much more fun!
Anyway, I have been staring at my personal bare spot (along with several places that my Jack Russells have been using as their potty all winter long) and contemplating some repairs. I took matters into my own hands with a rake and a bag of Wal-Mart grass seed but I may have gone about this all wrong. Today, lo and behold, I find this great website called American Lawns, http://www.american-lawns.com/problems/repair.html. This website has great tips for fixing not only my problem but lots of lawn problems.
Now if I can only find a great tip for pulling weeds!
