WHy do you assume a lawn is easy to maintain?

A cheap way to make it look better is to:

1) Get rid of the rubbish.

2) Use some herbacide to kill off everything

3) Get some decent soil from a garden centre

4) Sprinkle lots of three leaf clover seed and rake it well in.

5) Water every day for a couple of months.

This will make a green areas that inhibits weeds and does not need much
mowing.
