Lawn help
I have a small, fenced, townhouse backyard. The yard is in horrible
shape, although it is very green. I have lots of weeds, crabgrass, and a few bare spots. The yard is fairly shady and has good drainage. It is now early December (Northern Virginia). I do not want a perfect yard but would like to do what I can to improve the current situation. What are the best, fairly low maintenance, routines for clearing up a weed infested yard. I'm guessing it has never been fertilized and I do know there is a grub problem. Thanks |

Hi Scott,
I'm in Fairfax. Definitely put down a nice winter feed like Espoma's Turf Tone. If a significant snowfall is predicted, you can overseed your lawn. The snow will insulate the grass seed and the freeze/thaw cycles will help drive the seed into the earth. Dave "Scott" wrote in message m... I have a small, fenced, townhouse backyard.

Thanks for the advice.. Does anyone know of any good online stores for ordering yard/garden supplies? What is the best way to spread fertiziler and weed killer in a small yard. It seems foolish and difficult to use a large wheeled spreader. Thanks |
