Random Dead spots

Hi. Within the past few weeks several dead spots appeared on my Kentucky blue grass out of nowhere. Last year, I did a total renovation to get rid of zoysia. It was looking really good mid-May but now it’s looking brownish in some areas and there are several spots that are completely dead. I’ve been...

Re: Best time to kill and reseed?

Hi again. Today, I mowed the dead grass down to the ground. Tomorrow, I will be dethatching the lawn before putting down new seed.

This might be a silly question but do I just simply seed over whats remaining of the old/dead grass? Do I need to add soil to the lawn before seeding??

Re: Best time to kill and reseed?

Thank you for all the responses and recommendations. I will be using Glyphosate in a few weeks to kill the Zoysia. Just one more question...will the Glyphosate harm the Forsynthia and Hosta plants that I have in my front yard? Should I keep a safe distance from them with the Glyphosate? Thanks in ad...

Best time to kill and reseed?

Hi. I live in Connecticut. I recently purchased my home after a few years of renting it. While renting, I didn't put to much time and energy into the lawn besides mowing, watering and basic fertilizing. During late Spring/Summer, the grass is always green with a few areas of minor weeds. But overall...
