San Antonio

Pretty sure that was just the name of the town!

 

Well, the stuff I recommended is really for the soil, not so much for the grass. But if the roots are alive, it will help the soil support the grass. Like $35, might be worth a try.

 

I may try it, but I am thinking I will let it ride this summer and see what happens. No point in replacing it this late in the game. Maybe spring time it will have continued to spread slowly and be awesome.

 

If it's got roots, that stuff will help it a lot. That's really what it does.

 

Anyone have a recommended alignment shop on the west side of town?

 

Well,, no idea, but suffice it to say I'm going to get a sub - box, and that amp that was no good was for that. Will just slow things down a couple days.

 

Hey!weird question.. Does that soil loosener work for all types of grass? I.e bermuda and st augustine?

 

Yep, it is for the soil, not so much the grass. Given that the East side of my yard was tore up for gas work last year, and they beat down the dirt DIRT they put back with a back hoe, then spread some soil before the sod - I used that and had a yard in about a month!
Two years ago after the trees got cut down and the yard beat to death was the first time I used it. I was amazed.

 

Sweet! I have it in my Amazon cart now! I'm about to reseed with some bermuda in the back since i had some areas get torn up from the dogs.

 

The company needs to give Kurt a kickback! I am going to try it as well. Since they didnt lay new topsoil down before laying the sod according to my neighbor, I figure it cant hurt. Plus if it doesnt help my issue, I am going to rip up some of that old sod anyway.

 

You will water less once established too - the soil holds water better.

 

Yeah i plan on laying down this chemical first. Then some top spoil/dressing and then go ahead and level some spots while adding seed.

 

I just got some simple lawn solution stuff to thicken my grass, came in today. I'll take before and after pics to see any difference. However, I did read up on different types of fertilizers, that brand is one of the best.

 

I dont plan on ripping the whole yard up on mine. IF I do anything I am thinking of just ripping a few pieces up in the center and along the edges so it has a better chance of filling into the center. I wish they sold plugs, but apparently they are online order only.

 

How often do u reapply? Because i have airated with the machine it every year since ive been here

 

Thanks. Any info/progress is much appreciated. I posted on reddit a couple of hours ago to see what the lawn gurus say.

 

I've made it a spring thing the last three years. Can't get a machine out here.

This is what I read a few days ago, seems like trust worthy information. I do like the fact that the simple lawn solutions is natural. I'm about to make a raised bed on the edge of some well established grass. Trying not to kill my veggies once I do plant them. Lol.

 

Well it sure is cheaper than renting the machine...

 

I have some metal edging that I pulled up this weekend. Not in the best of shape, but I am taking to the dump saturday if you or Kurt want it. Let me know and I will take some pics. Its ziptied into loops on my backyard currently.
