I really need to do the before pictures but never remember! I've been preparing the lawn with moss stuff and trying to get the weeds out for the last month and a half. One of our friends has been walking me through the preparation of reseeding a lawn. The front desperately needs it since my elderly neighbor was being helpful and scalped my lawn in areas a couple of years ago when he mowed. Those areas have never recovered. And the poor back lawn is so full of moss! Most of it appears to have died off but it still seems like some is still left. We'll see what our friend has to say tomorrow! Anyway today was the day to mow as far down as I could since it was nice most the day. Tomorrow it's supposed to rain but hopefully it'll cooperate long enough for the seed to get down! Here's the pictures of the final mow. I think there are muscles that I didn't know I had!
Now hopefully in a few weeks I can post a nice green lawn!! :)
Front lawn- and there's one of the bare patches. :)
Back lawn in progress- kind of a before picture
This was the piles AFTER the mower, with bag, was done,
I then raked the middle of the lawn because of the moss and thatch (this is before I raked)
Another angle before I raked
I didn't bother to do that area since it'll probably be gone in the next couple of years. So there's what it looked like before. :)
After the second mow to pick up what the raking did. DONE !!!
