Have you had your PH tested.??

Do you know what type of grass it is ?

No idea about PH. Didn't even know you could test grass PH.

Clueless on the type of grass.

I do know that there is very little top soil underneath.

You test soil ph, and unless you know the type of grass, it's hard to give an accurate cure.......but MOST grasses do good in the 6-7 ph level.

And tonight the neighbor came over a complemented me on it
