Just moved into the new house about 2-months ago. I am having a problem in my front yard with the sod we laid. When we originally laid it we failed to address a drainage issue in one part of the yard and it rained heavily about a week later, that grass there is very "patchy". It is centiped (spelling) grass and the front yard is in the sun for most of the day. I am having problems with weeds popping up everywhere and I am tired of leaning over and plucking them up every day.
I am not very up on this stuff, isn't there some type of seed or lime I can throw out with a walk behind spreader to control the weeds? There are too many of them to spray with a hand held weed spray. I have heard that once you start cutting your grass it will help control them as well...BUT I haven't cut my grass yet because I was told to let the centiped really take root and grow 4-5" or so before the first cut. Any advice would be appreciated bucause I am tired of seeing them in my yard!
