It happens to many home gardeners, especially by the end of summer: the weary lawn looks dead. Whatever the cause – drought, pets, kiddie pool, neglect – dry, lifeless spots in the yard ruin the overall look, feel and value of your property. If the damage requires more than a mini makeover, consider
seeding a new fall lawn this year. Late summer through early fall is the ideal time to start new turf in many areas of the US. It may take a few weeks before you see any green at the end of your new-lawn tunnel, but the rewards will be great. (And your bare feet will thank you for it!)
