I would just like to point out that lawn raking and scarifying are not the same thing at all. Raking occasionally is a good idea to get the grass...
I wouldn't worry too much about it. The wet weather last year and the delayed spring has meant that a lot of lawns have used up a lot of key...
We are right on the cusp, so you should be okay to overseed now. Spread the seeds, rake them in to get a good soil contact and then water. (or...
There is a huge amount of choice of grass seed, so just go for whichever is best for your situation (i.e. shade tolerant, high-wear, fine lawn...
I'd agree with Kristen. It all depends on how good the soil that you have is ... we can't really guess that one for you! Adding a layer of good...
Doesn't sound too bad then. If you had bulbs and weeds growing in it then you should be okay. Just dig it over (or rotavate it) to get some air...
Ooooohhh. No comment. ;)
Hi Ben, Welcome to GC. Quite a few issues here! firstly, grass is a plant and needs a nice place for it to live for it to thrive. Any grass...
Yes, they will probably kill them. Or at least, won't do them any good at all. Bulbs in a lawn are a tricky one, and they generally don't mix....

Hi Eric, I'd be concerned that a lawn just over a year old has thinned already. Did it ever get going and start to thicken, or has it always...
As I said above, whoever you get in, make sure you get them to rake to cores off ... some bigger companies refuse to as it takes too long and they...
I don't know of any manual Hollow-tine tool that doesn't clog up to be honest! Extremely compacted lawns need a lot of "oomph" behind them and a...
Wow, that's amazing! Have you got any photos? Would love to see that. As for what to do, The only things I can suggest is to either try to...
It's far too early to do anything with your lawn other than moss control. Patience! Weedkiller won't do anything as the weeds aren't growing...
It's a field grass, a bit like couch grass. If you find an odd clump of different coloured broad-leaved grass in the middle of your lawn, it's...
The only way to be sure is to kill it with Glyphosate, wait a couple of weeks, prep the area by raking over with some topsoil and re-seeding. Best...
Hi Deano, I would suggest just keep going over it, getting as many stones and weed roots out as you can, and then, if you're just going to have...
We had one of these appear in our back garden. We thought it was a stray chives plant, so potted it up with the other herbs. After chopping some...
1st - My local fishery, Mowgley - Lovely light. I'd put that up on my wall! 2nd - A pair of mushrooms, ryland.J - I always love a good fungus...
