    The rocks is the issue here. I had a septic repair and they brought “topsoil” full of rocks. Anywhere that was rocks, the rock would get hot and kill the grass all around it. Make sure topsoil u get is screened for rocks of 1/2” or less

    • @ColumbusLandscapers

      Correct, I believe this was a builder issue. Any topsoil that you get respectively should be screened for rocks. Many times in new belt homes we see that there's no rock removal or topsoil added, they just lay down the sod.

I'm looking for an economical solution that will help control erosion. I like the fact that Kentucky 31 has deep roots. So that seems like a good fit for erosion control.

      First off, proper diagnosis is key. Many times a customer will tell me they have Crabgrass but it's actually something different. Crabgrass is fairly easy to control if done correctly, and applications are made at the correct times. Pre-emergents in spring and Quinclorac sprays in late spring and summer if needed.

    What brand varieties of fescue do you recommend? I have numerous large trees in my back lawn. I've tried the "dense shade mixes", "sun & shade mixes" and creeping red fescue. Prior to seeding with Boreal creeping red fescue in February, I looked around the lawn and the bulk of what had survived from previous applications was one of the fine fescues. So, I seeded with Boreal creeping red fescue. At this time in August 2023, there does appear to be either some dead or dormant red fescue. I say dormant because if I tug on the turf it is attached to the ground. I've seeded with different varieties over three years. In the past 18 months I have been using mostly Pennington seeds.
