Lawn from scratch
I have acidic clayey never-cultivated-upon soil in my backyard that I
plan to put a lawn in. It gets hard as rock during the summer and mushy and sticky during the winter/rains. I plan to amend it with natural stuff (peat-moss? compost?), till it to a depth of 6 inches, then seed it. The area gets LOTS of sunshine (north california, sacramento area) and gets bizarrely hot during the summer - for say a good four months atleast. If seeding does not work, I may end up sodding it, but first I want to try seeding. Any lawn experts out there care to share their insights/thoughts on such a venture? |
