I live in east Dallas near White Rock Lake. My back yard has so little topsoil, there are places where you can see a smooth surface of white rock. When I moved here in 2000, I had a beautiful St. Augustine back yard. I've been totally organic using molasses and Green Sense fertilizer, but 14 years later, the yard is mostly weeds and Bermuda grass that has krept in from next door. (My front yard is as beautiful as the day I came.) I think I need more soil. What do I spread over the lawn to build the top layer of soil without killing what grass I have? Topsoil? Composted Manure? Composted Cotton Burr? A Combination?
