Hello everyone,

My lawn grass doesnt grow when summer is coming because people step
on it. However it is still truning green. Is anyway to fix this
problem? using the averation?


Thanks,
Robert


How much "stepping on" are you talking about? And, can you stick a trowel
into the soil with about as much effort as it takes to stick a fork into
a
well-done steak?



thank you for replying
people sometime goes through my grass to shortcut.
I saw my soil is very solid in some area

Thanks,
Rob



Aeration could help, but it will become compacted again quickly if you don't
stop people from walking on it. This can be as simple as temporary metal
posts and some wire fence material. I'd keep it in place until late autumn.
