I have a tiny 10ft by 10ft lawn in a garden which is theoretically south
facing but which in winter gets no sun at all because of being very near
the
house.

This little lawn therefore is not much good for growing grass but grows
some
fine goldeny moss

I don't want concrete or gravel but is there some other solution?

Thanks

Peter


You can you a moss killer such as iron sulphate, but unless you improve the
drainage, moss will return within a few weeks.
Drainage can be improved by raking out moss and dead grass regularly, and
then using a fork to "spike" holes in the turf. Or you can take the easy
option and get used to looking at a mossy lawn - if we ever get another hot
dry summer, the moss can be the only green colour in a lawn.
