Poa Annua heaven this year. Such a wet winter a lot of the ryegrass struggled leaving the ground bare early season. Then the moisture ensured great germination of the Poa.

[@danbanham728]

Dan, you are worth listening to, my lawn was really spongy last year and when cutting the lawn it was ripping the grass out even though the mower was set on a higher setting than normal. After watching your videos I realised it was all down to the thatch and it had been growing underneath the lovely green surface growth, when I peeled back the grass there was loads of thatch. I followed your videos and cut the lawn short, then raked/scarified, then put some top dressing on with seed and it's much better so far, still got a long way to go, your video's are very educational.

Yeah i see what you mean alot in my career, the soil level is well below the layer isnt it, a rye grass lawn will always be at soil level if taken care off, peters lawn is so firm under foot

Dan. I experimented two years ago and used fescues and bents on front lawn and 40% dwarf rye with creeping red fescue, chewings fescue, strong creeping red fescue and a small amount of bents on the back. Yes front lawn..very hard work. Weed grasses also showed up in the front which made it look worse than the back. I am gradually converting the front to match the back so mixed ⅓ of grass seed I used on the front with ⅔ of seed from back to overseed a few days ago. Next year I will sow the same as the back. Probably done everything wrongly but we shall see..I will share results when it becomes little established.

Hi Dan. I have just top dressed a really wet boggy lawn. We had the ground levelled last spring and turfed shortly afterwards. The lawn did well for the summer and autumn but suffered really badly from compaction over the winter resulting in bare ground and waterlogging in the shady area of the lawn. This week i have aerated with a core aerater by hand, taking out 25mm holes down to 4" and also hand scarified and removed a lot of thatch. Today i have set up the cement mixer put in 50 ltrs of compost to 25 litres of top soil and pre mixed the seed into the mixture. The ground had settled badly in some areas so there were a lot of low spots. I have levelled it all off, some areas to a depth of 25mm in depth. Any pointers going forward or things which i may have done which might not help the lawn to regenerate. I have used A1 lawn seed. I am keen to establish the ground in this second year and hopefully have a more flat and stable standing for the lawn which i can then start working on properly. Love the videos.

Hello! Please help! After applying sand top dressing (half m3 /100m2) and smoothing it with a leveling rake, I noticed that no matter how I try to level the area, there remain tender, thin and weak horizontally lying blades of grass under the sand. Should I worry about them, or will they come out after a few days? They emerge as a result of a water jet (or water sprayed from half a meter away), but this slightly erodes the effect of leveling because it re-excavates the area filled with sand between the larger clumps of old grass, and can also displace upturned seeds and fertilizer particles. So far, I have applied only half of the planned amount of top dressing, I don't dare to spread more, I would like to wait until the grass grows a little (I cut it into short pieces before aerating the lawn). At the same time, I don't think I can wait too long, because I sowed fast-germinating seeds, and once the new grass comes, it shouldn't be necessary to loosen the soil. What do you advise?
