Overseeding


Despite this being one of the worst years on record for growing grass from seed, the yard actually doesn't look that bad compared with earlier in the year. The bare spot where Bill and his guys were working has started to fill in nicely. There are still a few little bare spots and thin areas, along with where the trench was dug for the power lines. So, I took a little time to overseed the lawn over the long weekend. In theory this should be the perfect time to seed and seed was on sale. We'll see how it looks later in the fall.

We may have to overseed again next year, but I still think seed is the right way to go with the dense shade that we have. Sod just won't survive without lots of sun.
