lawn help!
but is the centre of the Garden . Thanks Assuming that the weeds and moss patches are few, I would start by applying lawn feed to revitalize the grass; in 4-6 weeks you can apply a  lawn weed and feed to treat problem areas. In the meantime. mow regularly by Edenrose

crab grass or tall fescue
that you can get rid of them is to dig them out or weedkill them, I'm afraid. Other than that, mowing regularly should reduce their vigour. thanks alina, i think i will dig them out and re-seed because there is only 3 by lynne24

Talkback: Octoberfest
agree about the mowing. Autumns are much warmer. Personally I hate mowing and wish it would stop earlier but I have still found myself mowing up until about December over the past couple of years - I think it may be the lawn's revenge for all by Marysa

Evergreen Lawn
or you'll scalp it - but regular little and often - at this time of year it should be growing well (particularly after all the rain we've had) so it probably needs mowing twice a week if possible.  In the summer lawns should be cut at least once a week by Chris9

need help
Hi to you all and a good 2013 to you, ok I am moving house soon and have a huge garden which will need a gardener, but it has just me and my husband, so we thought maybe make a grass pathway which we can mow and have wild flowers, like poppies by denise butcher

Mossy lawn
Last year I offered to mow the lawn (about 50 square metres) of an elderly friend. However, I found myself mowing moss rather than grass. I would like to change this moss lawn into a grass one, but my friend does not want to have to put up by Les2
