I live in Los Angeles, CA. Last year(2011) my lawn was dug up completely and reseeded . Green for a few months. This year my grass was/is brown like straw but green in spots. The ground is like clay. I am a senior and cannot afford a gardener. With the help of my son what can we do? My lawn was the prettiest in the block and now it is "embarassing". What can I do? Help...
With the heavy California soil, aerating, removing the plugs, and raking in organic material to fill them can really make a difference.
You mention it is brown in places? Was it bermuda before and did it return? It goes dormant and turns brown naturally in the fall. Nothing you can do but dye it.
