Now it’s time to spread the soil and compost with this sand…
Dethatching has become more popular lately, thanks to YouTube and other non-academic sources. However, there’s a lot of misunderstanding around it. Thatch is made up of grass stems and roots, not clippings. A little bit of thatch is actually good for your lawn, and it’s only when it’s over an inch thick that it becomes a problem. Dethatching without a real need for it can actually hurt your lawn, and a better alternative for dealing with excessive thatch is core aeration, which helps break it down naturally.
Don’t forget to use the Scotts spreader for even coverage!
Reminds me of the line from Casino:
‘A lot of holes in the desert, and a lot of problems are buried in those holes. But you gotta do it right. Gotta have the hole dug before you show up with the package in the trunk. Otherwise, you could be there all night digging more holes.’
Me, pulling weeds in my yard, singing ‘Diggin’ up some holes, diggin’ diggin’ up some holes!’
I’m tired of this grandpa…

That’s too damn bad!
Did you get the topsoil and do a soil test?
Don’t forget to check for grubs! Here’s a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3iFJpGJiug

You got worms, bro, and not the good kind!
Don’t forget to water!
Will iron help this dry clay absorb water?
(just kidding! )
