New to this house in Oklahoma two years ago we quickly realized it was missing a "yard". We had weeds!!
First thing done was to fence-in a good size area and throw down some seed. All things considered I decided to use a pretty good Bermudagrass blend from Seedland. Last year I installed a sprinkler system and planted more seed. This Spring I'm concentrating on eliminating as many weeds as possible. Oklahoma must be the dandelion capital of the world! I'm planning to plant more seed by mid May.
I would like to get the most out of this next seeding. It would be good to get out there with a rake to loosen as much soil as possible before I seed or at least use a "topper" but that doesn't seem practical. Is there something my mower can pull over the lawn to loosen soil without tearing up what is there?
What should I do to ensure good results from my next seeding?
