Hi,
I am a novice gardener and am attempting to sort out my lawn. Which has
a fair
bit of moss and weeds.
I aerated the lawn last week and put some sharp sand down. The next day
applied
evergreen 1:4 complete, it rain well and I now have a several
areas of back
lawn, not all of the moss and weeds are gone.
What do I do next should I scarify the lawn or just rake up the dead
moss and re
seed?
Thanks
Jason

I would scarify the lawn.
Perhaps get a bottle of lawn weed killer and treat the weeds themselves
and a bag of lawn sand for the moss.

Dig or spot spray the weeds or remaining moss areas. Mow the lawn LONG. Maybe as
high as your mower can go.
