Don t worry about that. Look at your lawn as an opportunity. Challenge yourself to be a detective when it comes to your grass and look for clues to help you come up with a lawn-care program that suits your situation. Evaluate the Site To ensure long-term success, a lawn needs to start with careful evaluation of the site that goes well beyond how much sun or shade the site receives. It is important to know the soil type, structure and compaction level.
Appropriate steps taken during preparation are much easier than dealing with future problems.
It is important to remove twigs, leaves and plant debris from your grass in spring. Left on the lawn, they can smother grass and encourage diseases. Before cleaning up your lawn in spring, be sure the ground has thawed and absorbed excess moisture. Walking on a wet lawn compacts the soil making it much harder for the grass roots to access the water and air they need to thrive. When the lawn is dry enough, it can be gently raked.
