Problem with lawn

Brian Rintoul asked 8 years ago
Last year, on my big  2 year old lawn,there appeared big brown patches filled with dried dead grass. I ‘ve tried to rake and spread more lawn seeds and lawn feed on the patches but don’t see any changes so far. Grass is not growing as quick and thick as it used to. What can I do to fix those patches and improve lawn health? Would any fertilizer help?

Lack of feed does not kill grass … it just grows poorly. If all the grass is dead, it is due to some other factor, such as dog urine on small patches or petrol spillage or weedkiller contaminatio, or a very shallow topsoil.

Dig a hole to investigate the quality of the soil.

Re-sow and when grass is growing, feed with lawn fertiliser.
