My lawn is now about three years old, and consists mainly of bluegrass sod. I’ve had excellent results with the grass, yet like everyone, I have my trouble spots. I’d like to de-thatch my lawn, then repair those trouble spots. I live in Indianapolis, IN, so I’m wondering is now a good time? Do I need to cut a level lower prior to thatching? What don’t I want to do? Also, I’d want to re-seed, should I stick with bluegrass, or would some type of quick-germinating mix be more appropriate just to get coverage?
