I hope this helps you find some success, pets definitely create challenges to maintaining a nice landscape but they're companionship far out weighs the lawn struggles. Thank you for watching!
It’s kind of counter-intuitive to remove the rocks and roots but I can see you’re going all out for healthy grass roots. I have a grassy ditch by the street that is continuously eroding. The problem started once the street runoff breached the elevated grassy edge.
Yeah I know the tree roots and rock help retain the soil here but I wanted grass to do that here and in order for the grass to grow well I needed to remove those items to help the grass develop good roots, like you mentioned. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. It’s June 2nd here in central Texas. I was thinking that now would be good time to do project because of the predicted rains to come and warm temperatures. If there wasn’t going to be any rain but heat I would wait for the fall. What do you think about me starting the project now considering the weather conditions in my area at this time??
The Lawn Guardian It looks like I have just random weeds on the lawn with lots of bare dirt patches. The soil outside of San Antonio is rocky but I have seen some grass grow in some yards because they probably put quite of bit of soil on top of the rocks. This part of Texas isn’t as dry as you continue to go west but not as fertile as the area in and around Houston.
@@tessloneill7978 You're better off seeding bermuda or sodding St. Augustine at this point. You don't want to wait until fall to plant warm season grass.
i got the same crappy soil. All i did is put logs on tp of the grass, I covered them with leaves and hey and then put the compost( 6 inches on top. This fall, i will only add 3 inches of fall leaves and I am done for the whole winter, but hey, if you want to complicate your life, by all means.
I’ve enjoyed your videos The Lawn Guardian! I’m gonna be posting my renovation videos on my channel (Sun City Lawn Care) soon. I’d appreciate any feedback and I will always follow back.
You are just going to have to do that again in a few years. You did not fix the problem, you just covered it up bc the drainage will still happen. I think I would have put in a drainage system.
This was actually caused from a skid steer driving in this area of the lawn and not a drainage problem. This area will likely need to be turned into a garden or rock bed of some kind in the future because it is in constant shade and on a slope so grass didn't grow thick here. Thank you for your input. 😊 👍
@@TheLawnGuardian Yes, that is why I said you will just have to do something again to it bc of the slope and the rain run off. I have the same issue on one side of my house that is in the shade and on a slope. I use it as a path for my golf cart. I will be putting rock down on mine. If you do not use yours as a path, then you might be able to put in a terrace system. Sub to you bc you are cool and respond
@@NightThings99 yeah I would have likely done something different with this area in the future but I did this in the fall just before we were about to put this house on the market. The lawn I have now in my newer videos doesn't have these types of issues. Thanks again for your support!
@@TheLawnGuardian If you are in Denver, Colorado the market is booming. If you are where I am at in Mississippi a house will sit on the market for 2 years. Good thing about that is a house that cost 400k in Denver is 100K in Mississippi. With a mortgage of $430! My one bedroom studio in Denver was $1300 a month back in 2017. Guess it all has its pros and cons. Going to check out some of your other videos. Best of luck with RU-vid and adventures in life.
