| Should I get all the old straw (hay) up before reseeding the lawn in the front? We have way to much hay and the seed is not growing! It is a big yard and the water is just sitting on top of the hay. What should I do? We are putting down new top soil in the back yard. Should I get all the old hay up or can we put the new top soil down over it? |
| It sounds like too much of a good thing! I'd rake the straw away and reseed the lawn. If you want to cover the seeds to help retain moisture, try a thin layer of peat moss. |
