Suggestion... you seem to have a fairly big backyard. Instead of growing grass, convert part of the backyard into a vegetable garden, with maybe a few fruit trees. Get the whole family involved, especially kids. It will be a huge life lesson for them. You can use the grass clippings, fall leaves and kitchen scraps to make compost for your vegetable garden. Please give it a thought. Start small and expand over time. Good luck!

Former golf course superintendent here. Easier option is to just core aerate. Chop up your cores mowing low. Water thoroughly and use the roller. Holes allow your lawn to "squish" to level. Core debris fills holes nicely. Fewer steps, labor and sand is pricey. Topdressing does a better job, but it's expensive and tedious without the right tools.
@davehaggerty3405
2 ай бұрын
I aerated with a 5’ aerator. Sometimes dragged the cores to fill low spots. If I couldn’t pull up a 2” core I would put it off until it rained. There ain’t much dirt in a whole yard full of cores. I’d top-dress with an inch of comtill. Not much there either. It takes years to smooth a lawn that way. Aerating two times a year. I’d have loved to level lawns like this guy. One and done!

Our lawn used to be smooth until recently I noticed bumps. Turns out we had moles digging around causing the ground to unlevel. Got one of the solar repellents and after a couple of weeks, a good low mow without bagging up clippings eventually leveled our lawn back out. Video method would have definitely gotten our lawn leveled a lot faster and less patchy over time. Eventually our lawn filled out fully the next season. No more moles.

Don’t need to fertilize the seed. The seed has all the nutrients it needs to start and grow plus the soil nutrients,Fertilizing could in fact kill the seed as nitrogen is capable of burning. Nitrogen does only one thing for grass. So…wait for seeds to sprout and the grass to get stronger before fertilizing.

Grass is a type of plant with narrow leaves growing from the base. Their appearance as a common plant was in the mid-Cretaceous period. There are 12,000 species now. [1] A common kind of grass is used to cover the ground in places such as lawns and parks. Grass is usually the color green. That is because they are wind-pollinated rather than insect-pollinated, so they do not have to attract insects. Green is the best colour for photosynthesis. Grasslands such as savannah and prairie where grasses are dominant cover 40.5% of the land area of the Earth, except Greenland and Antarctica. [2] Grasses are monocotyledon herbaceous plants. They include the "grass" of the family Poaceae, which are called grass by ordinary people. This family is also called the Graminee, and includes some of the sedges (Cyperaceae) and the rushes (Juncaceae). [3] These three families are not very closely related, though all of them belong to clades in the order Poles. They are similar adaptations to a similar life-style. With around 780 genera and around 12,000 species, [1] the Poaceae is the fifth-largest plant family, after the Asteraceae, Orchidacee, Fabaceae and Rubia ceae. [4] The true grasses include cereals, bamboo and the grasses of lawns (turf) and grassland. Uses for graminoids include food (as grain, sprouted grain, shoots or rhizomes), drink (beer, whisky), pasture for livestock, thatching th atch, paper, fuel, clothing, insulation, constructio n, sports turf, basket weaving and many others. Many grasses are short, but some grasses can grow tall, such as bamboo. Plants from the grass family can grow in many places and make grasslands, including areas which are very arid or cold. There are several other plants that look similar to grass and are referred to as such, but are not members of the grass family. These plants include rushes, reeds, papyrus and water chestnut. Seagrass is a monocot in the order Alismatales. Grasses are an important food for many animals, such as deer, buffalo, cattle, mice, grasshoppers, cater pillars and many other grazers. Unlike other plants, grasses grow from the bottom, so when animals eat grass they usually do not destroy the part that grows. [5] This is a part of why the plants are successful. Without grass, soil may wash away into rivers (erosion).
