My girlfriend and I moved into a new house late last summer. For the most part, the new sod seems to be well attached to the existing soil. I have several questions:
1. Gaps between the squares: As I've had my nose closer to the ground, doing a bit of weeding, I've noticed several areas where the squares were either laid a little too far apart, or shrank. What's a good mix to fill these mini-trenches with?
2. Dead squares: Fortunately there are very few, but there are maybe a dozen squares that seem to lift off the undersoil....do i go ahead and replace or is there any chance there are roots waiting to spring up (and down).
3. I am in the process of spraying Garrett Juice across the lawn (it isn't very big maybe 1000 sq. ft.) Is it correct that I also put down a dry organic fertilizer at the Dirt Doctor recommended rates? Or do I wait a few weeks after the Garrett Juice?
Thanks!
