I am writing this letter in full despair and hope for some professional
help from you.

As a new home owner (3 years), I spent a lot of time and resources on
my lawn but despite all my efforts it doesn't seems to get any better.
Instead of improvement the grass gets slowly but surely overtaken by
several types of weeds.

As I am relatively new to the field of gardening and my knowledge in
this area is very limited, I tried to rely on fertilize/weed control
packages from Scott's. For the last 3 years, I used their 4 steps
program and apply each of their steps according to the instructions on
the label. I also spent a lot of time manually removing some of the
weeds, but that doesn't seems to help as the very next day my lawn is
yellow again from dandelions I have missed.

In order to give you an idea of the condition of the lawn, I took
several images of the weeds and the troublesome areas in my yard and
published them on a small web page. The images could be found he

Could you please take a look and let me know what needs to be done, in
order to save my lawn.



There is more to lawn care than chemical treatments. You have to have the
right grass for your area. It needs to be cut and watered appropriately. I
think there are two approaches you can take. he first would be to overseed
the lawn and try to get something growing in the dead areas. The second
approach would be to kill or remove the lawn and start over.
