Good work, why did plant the grass seed now with fall and winter coming? Are you planning on using Scott's winterizer on it? Did you buy all the equipment in the picture or rent some of it. Plans for the side of the front yard? Very nice house, what state is this in? Last how far down did you run the irrigation system?

That is one thing I love about having a house and a backyard you can try out all types of things and learn. My problem is I have two little ones that don't want to wait for dad to figure them out. LOL. Again dope job on that work man, would love to see more of the house if you don't mind. Spot kind of reminds me of like a TV show house with the garage in back.

1. FALL IS THE BEST TIME TO PLANT NEW GRASS OR OVERSEED AN EXISTING LAWN IF YOU LIVE UP NORTH FOR COOL SEASON GRASSES.
2. I’M NOT GOING TO USE WINTERIZER ON IT. IM GOING TO DO WHAT IS CALLED SPOON FEEDING AND THE FALL NITROGEN BLITZ, WHICH IS FEEDING THE LAWN SMALL AMOUNTS OF NITROGEN FERTILIZER WEEKLY TO GET IT TO THICKEN UP AND GROW DEEP ROOTS BEFORE THE WINTER. THAT HELPS IT SURVIVE WINTER AND GREEN UP HEALTHY AND QUICK IN THE SPRING.
3. I BOUGHT ALL THE EQUIPMENT EXCEPT FOR THE TRENCHER. THE GREEN MACHINE IS A REEL MOWER FOR GETTING A BETTER CUT THAN A TRADITIONAL ROTARY MOWER.
4. FOR THE SIDE I JUST PLANTED 5 SPARTAN JUNIPER TREES AND MULCHED IT. GRASS DOESNT GROW PARTICULARLY WELL ON THE SIDE SO NOT GONNA FIGHT IT THERE.
4. HOUSE IS IN CLEVELAND, OH.
5. IRRIGATION LINES WERE DUG DOWN 12”

My gfs family member is a groundskeeper for a resort and he and his team helped me get it done for cheap..
Removed gravel, repaired existing irrigation, prepped soil and laid sod

I buy a new one. Get a waterproof cover, it’ll block the sweat and skin flakes from ever touching the mattress
