Spongy Lawn
Sizeyuk1
Posts: 125
I have recently moved house and the small lawns are like sponge and full of moss. I would like to buy and airator (think its called that), it spikes the lawn and takes our small plugs of soil, then brush in sharp sand to improve drainage. I know I will have to use a moss killer, but when can I begin these jobs.

Mate, i recently watch a video on a gardening site. This guy fixed the moss problem by.
(1) Scarify
(2) Airate
(3) Brush in sharp sand and top soil mix
Here is a link to the Video bud. http://www.gardenersworld.com/how-to/projects/basics/how-to-improve-your-lawn/179.html
GOOD LUCK
Thanks Sam I will certainly try or get my other half to try Monty's suggestions., should we get rid of the broad leaf weeds dandelion etc before we treat the moss or after.
