I basically raked up the yard, treated with peat moss and raked it in.
A fungicide was applied by my landscaping company to treat it.
One week after treatment. I applied a 15-5-10 fertilizer reccomended by Randy Lemmon (Nitro Phos)


My questions:


1)Will my yard come back in time? Am I being impatient as it is not true growing season?

2) Did i take the right measures? Do y'all see improvements? Any other advice?
3) Currently watering 1'' once a week. I will ramp it up once the warmer weather arrives.


I will be following randy lemmons schedule to hopefully bring my backyard back to shape.

Thanks in advance for any input or diagnosis.

Our yard went through a drought then tons of rain. Lately we've seen dry conditions - February was very hot. One thing I've done on our lawn is rake out the dead grass. I heard that on the news ages ago but still remember it's important to do that.


From past experience, I'd say let your lawn sit and absorb the treatments. You've done the right thing. Give it time. Peat moss is the way to go and it doesn't cure instantly. I do know if you do too much that also takes time to recover from.


If you want another opinion, go visit Lowes or Home Depot and talk to someone in their gardening centers.

Uh, no. The nice folks at the Bigbox Store gardening departments and BigChain Nurseries are NOT experts! I know several of them personally. Instead, go to one of the independent nurseries in your area and ask to speak with someone on their staff. Additionally, pull up the KTRH Gardenline website and read what local gardening guru Randy Lemmon has to say about lawn care.
