Q: Should I soak grass seeds before planting?

Soaking these seeds in a bag or bin of water for one to four days beforehand can give the grass the start it needs to survive.</p></div>

Q: What is the best time of year to redo a lawn?

• <div><p>Depending on the lawn treatments, the best times of the year to redo your lawn are between mid-August and mid-September for overseeding and renovation treatments. For areas such as the southern United States, lawn aeration works best during the fall, when the temperatures begin to drop. Otherwise, early spring is your next best bet because the grass is fresh and ready to absorb nutrients, and the temperature isn&rsquo;t hot enough to fry the grass and the renovation materials.</p></div>

Q: What do I do with holes after pulling weeds?

• <div><p>You can fill the holes weeds leave behind with soil or sand to avoid unsightly spots or tripping hazards. If you remove weeds from a grassy area, fill the hole with soil and grass seed, and water regularly to promote grass growth. </p></div>

Q: How did orchard grass get in my lawn?

• <div><p>Orchard grass seeds can spread quite easily, traveling with the wind as well as birds and animals. Common grass seed packets, especially in the popular tall fescue variety, may contain the occasional orchard grass seed by accident. Always purchase high-quality turf grass seed without &quot;other crop seeds&quot; mixed in.</p></div>

Q: Why do I have so much clover in my lawn?

• <div><p>Too much clover in your lawn can indicate several issues with your soil. Clover can thrive in soils with abnormally high pH, low-cut grass, and low nitrogen. Amending these issues can push clover out for good.</p><p>Hardy perennial clover loves the low nitrogen and compact conditions that often come with poor, infertile soils. But other factors also contribute to a clover explosion, including drought conditions, cool temperatures, under fertilization, and over-irrigation. You&rsquo;ll need to evaluate all these elements when planning to kill off the clover.</p></div>
