Yard Guys- How do you Prep for Grass?

Your lawn looks great @Ddaddy !! I would take that!!

@SpeedThrills , my wife said mowing ours gives her a workout too!! I get 3-4 miles walking in the mill at work, I'll let her continue to mow ours...but eventually well get a rider.

When I was stationed in Arkansas we had a lawn service that treated it only. We cut it. I didn't see much difference before and after their service. Think we did it for one year, then quit.

I know we just have to make the yard a priority. I'm more interested in getting the backyard in shape since that's where we'll spend our time. The front is for neighbors and will come when it comes!

I fired every lawn company I ever had when it came to treating the lawns I have owned over the years. I have gotten far greater results just spreading the Scotts products myself.

While I no longer live at that house in Cincinnati, I stay in touch with the neighbors there and that lawn is still the envy of the neighborhood. The new owners still follow the twice per year application of the Scotts lawn food (in the Spring and Fall) just like I did.

The grass has essentially choked out all the weeds without need for weed killer. It’s what grass eventually does, you just have to be patient.
