I’ve had my EZ lawn in for 4 months… the only problem i run into is “hot spots”. if its hot outside and we’ve had no rain in couple of days, there will be several large areas of hot spots in the lawn… i don’t know how to solve this problem other than with water??? perhaps I need to mulch instead of bag so some of the thatch can help maintain the water in those areas? would it be helpful to take a small pitch fork and stab the areas that have “hot spots”? and suggestions?

yep it dries out easily in the summer…i would recommend mulching to build up thatch, however it seems this year i have had better luck w/ bagging (go figure) just hit it with a hose for a few around sundown
