How do I get rid of bald patches??
Asked on 26 Sep, 2008
Hello everyone!
First time caller here....
Me and my wife bought a new property last May and had a fairly nice plush back lawn. However, we bought a sand pit for our daughter and kept it in the same place in the garden for a couple of months. When we put it away for the winter, low and behold the grass had all died away and now we just have a big patch of soil with no grass at all.
I have tried sprinkling the Evergreen grass seeds on it but even after it has rained, the seeds haven't taken. This was 6 months ago.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can invigorate the grass growth in this area again?
Many thanks
Steve

Dis you protect the seed against Birds and Mice by covering with fleece?

I agree with Inverglen.
1- 2 rolls of turf, not expensive and the ideal time of year to lay it.

A least you learned a lesson in gardening plants need light or they die!!! Inverglen has the answer.

Sounds like it might be quite a small area. If it were me I would lightly dig and re-level that area then buy a roll of turf and lay it. Perfect time of year to do it too.
