    1. Work on Wall Street.
    2. Call a Landscaping Company.
    3. Make sure you go to the club while they are gardening.

    1. buy green spray paint
    2. buy beer
    3. wear your old shoes

    Move into the house next door. From what I understand the grass is always greener over there.


    This. This is your answer.

    Lots of Nitrogen
    aerate
    and water deeply once a week

    also sit on the front porch with cocktails sending loving vibes
    to every little blade of grass out there ...
    this really works! :D

    I agree!I talk to my lawn and bushes all the time.
    I had a small backyard a few years ago and I decided to go with the Bermuda golf grass. I would enjoy a cocktail out there all the time. It was awesome, but very high maintenance.

    If it's already bad best to start fresh otherwise its a neverending battle. I tilled out parts if my lawn and have a nice part of Miller Park grass growing now. The difference is amazing. Trust me don't think you can fix it easy.

    Oh trust me... When my wife and I are sitting in our backyard sipping some G&T and looking out of our estate... the level of satisfaction is palpable.

    I know the feeling our lawn service even gave up :lol:

    If you do that go with sod, we went with seed and it was still never great.
    It's true though use starter fertilizer or anything high in nitrogen often
    really gets it going...

    the cocktails help too
    :D
