Intro/Help save my lawn
Hi, I'm Sammy - normally I try to contribute to a board before asking for help but (1) I just discovered this board and (2) I currently have no knowledge to contribute. I'm making a serious effort to learn how to garden/landscape this summer, so hopefully I can make this board home for a little while.
So... my lawn, well, my husband and I bought our first home last year, but I was very pregnant all summer so I didn't touch my lawn. As you can imagine, it's in shambles. I want to spread some seed and salvage the poor thing. I think I've figured out the correct approach (rake, spread seed, spread fine organic material, and water, water, water). Obviously, I missed fall, so I'm going to try to plant in the spring.
Is it too early to do this? I live in SE Michigan, there's no snow on the ground but it will likely snow a little bit more or at the very least drop below freezing. The last frost is usually the 2nd week of May. Can I proceed or should I wait until the last frost? TIA!
