New Lawn From Seed is EZ!

One of the many benefits of owning a dog is that I am spending more time in our yard. The downside is I am confronted with weeds, especially in our grass. Replacing a lawn with new sod is costly, so I have been testing grass seed options to fix areas I have treated with weed killer.

As a result of my testing, Scott Turf Builder Ez Seed is my new favorite grass seed. Within a week new grass is growing and it mixes nicely with existing grass. There are three varieties - fescue, bermuda and combination. They also have a dog spot repair. It requires very little effort beyond just making sure the soil is loose and pouring some of the mixture onto the soil. You can add a layer of soil on top but that is not absolutely necessary. It is available at most nurseries, including Home Depot, OSH and seasonally at Costco.
