You want advice? *How about this: *Wait until spring. At this point that is about all he can do. It would also be helpful if when asking for advice people would state where they are located, what kind of grass, was it laid as sod, etc. I hope it was properly watered before going dormant. In any case, if it's cool season grass and it gets cold, it's perfectly normal for it to look straw colored. Depending on the grass, some will lose color slower than others, but if it gets cold enough, well into the winter they will lose color. A reference point is always what do the established lawns of neighbors look like? Even then, you really have to compare similar grasses. Here in the NYC area some dummies plant Zoysia and it looks like straw from early Nov until May. My tall fescue usually looks partly green into Feb. And also - why are posting via gardenbanter? *The banter servers are so lame, and many are blocked/filtered on sight because they are used far more often for spam. |
