    We must have the worse North facing lawn in Yorkshire����
    When it rains the lawn is just like a big sponge /ice rink����nothing grows much.

    I will admit we have 7 hens but they donâ??t go on the lawn very often except for maybe the last 20 mins before bed.

    I would like to have a couple more hens O/H says no because of the state of the lawn so I am on a mission to get the lawn growing like mad so that he will change his mind.

    I know Iâ??m babbling on here and I will get to the point now.
    A friend of mine advised me to use some 20-10-10 fertilizer on the lawn which I couldnâ??t get but got one that was close enough 20-9-9.

    I applied this to the lawns front and back 6 wks ago and boy is there a huge difference! Itâ??s lush, thick and very very green and we have just allowed the hens to go back on it and they are loving it.

    Tomorrow I will apply the second application (keeping the hens off for 10 days or so) and hope things continue on the up so that I can get two new girls!!
