We don't have any snow right now. What can we do for the lawn in winter?
This is in Toronto.

Right now . . . nothing. Any thing you try to do while the grass is dormant
will kill or damage the good stuff and leave you with a yard full of weeds
and Johnson grass (that's that stuff you see growing along the highways when
you drive.

The hybrids - better quality 'lawn' grasses - can be rather temperamental
and are not as hardy as the wilder varieties. The lack of snow has little to
do with the grass' dormancy.

Best bet at this time of year is leave it be until the spring thaws.
