Can I get rid of crabgrass?
The best way to remove unsightly crabgrass from your lawn is to improve the density of your grass to prevent the sprouting of this annual weed. There are also a variety of natural herbicidesthat can help stop the plants once they germinate.
I can’t seem to get my grass to grow in the shade. What can I do?
Unfortunately, lawns need light to grow. Most grasses actually need at least three to four hours of light each day to stay healthy, so lawns receiving less than this will inherently be thin and sparse. The best approach to thickening up grass in these areas is simply to cut back overhanging vegetation that is shading the area. As well, reseeding and adding a little topsoil can also be beneficial.
