Q: Can watering dead grass bring it back to life?

• <div><p>No, watering dead grass will not bring it back to life. If the grass on your lawn is truly dead, no amount of water will bring it back to life. However, some methods can bring dying grass back to life. Consider aerating, overseeding, or analyzing your soil to get to the root of why the grass is dying. </p></div>

Q: Will grass seed grow if I throw it on the ground?

• <div><p>Technically, yes, at least some of the grass seed you throw on the ground will germinate. If the area doesn&rsquo;t have good drainage, rain or overwatering can move seeds before they have germinated, leaving your patches still patchy. What does grow won&rsquo;t have strong roots if there isn&rsquo;t proper aeration.</p></div>

Q: Will buffalo grass take over weeds?

• <div><p>Buffalo grass is not a dense grass, so weeds can grow between the buffalo grass plants. However, as long as you don&rsquo;t overwater your lawn, weeds have a hard time growing. If you do notice weeds, you can use granular herbicides that are safe for buffalo grass in early and late summer.</p></div>

Q: How do you make seeds germinate faster?

• <div><p>Fast-track your seeds to success by pre-soaking them for 24 hours in a shallow container filled with tap water. The water will penetrate the husk and moisten the embryos inside. After one day of soaking, sow the seeds in the soil. Never soak the seeds for more than one day (unless the specific variety calls for longer), as prolonged soaking could cause them to rot.</p></div>

Q: How do I revive my lawn during a drought?

• <div><p>Water your yard a little more deeply after a drought for about two weeks (while still avoiding overwatering). Continue to water in the early morning hours before 10 a.m. You'll also want to invest in some high-quality fertilizer to get more nutrients to your roots and help them grow back stronger and quicker. Look up your grass and soil type, or do a soil test, to see what type of fertilizer you need.</p></div>

If I could give negative stars, I would. Ken Poulsen, who I think is in charge, didn't consult with me or show me a plan on how he would put in the sprinkler system. Instead, he just started running his trenching machine making crooked trenches in the lawn. He never filled in the trenches...
