[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We badly neglected our lawn for about 5 years. I didn’t water it, I didn’t  fertilize it, and mostly didn’t apply weed killer. Also I stopped using one of those lawn chemical spray services about the same time.

Our financial situation has improved now and I want to invest in our lawn (to be good neighbor in this community, and also just to have a nicer lawn to be on).

1. Start lawn service NOW (spraying etc.) in the spring? Or will this kill the weeds while not helping the actual grass grow more.

2. Start in the Fall with aeration and overseeding, then do the lawn services after that.

3. Roughly how many years before a visible improvement?

Please advise.[/quote]

I’m in a new house that was sodded in 2020. Then resodded in 2022 because it burned. I did partial replacements in 2023. I have regular lawn maintenance by some expert.

My lawn is filled with weeds this year.He sprayed in March. It didn’t do anything. He said Montgomery County won’t allow real stuff so I have to live with weeds. I’m so frustrated. I’ll probably have to do some weed killer myself even though I don’t want chemicals. I have such a tiny area with grass (and huge backyard that has no grass) . I just want real grass.

They will tell you it takes years. I started with sod and a sprinkler system and experts and my lawn looks like crap four years later. [/quote]

Adding to my own post to say that I was annoyed with my lawn today and typed this in a huff! Lots of typos too. I really don’t want cancer causing chemicals on my lawn so I’ll have to keep looking for options or resod.

Whatever the lawn guy uses is not working. [/quote]
