◙◙ Speedy Lawn Patching ◙◙
◙ If all you are doing is patching your lawn you can plant it and it will be 8 inches tall in 2 days. I know it sounds impossible. But I have done it many times.
◙ Plant the seed as you normally would. But this time cut a piece of clear plastic a foot wider than the area you are patching and place something heavy like rocks around the edges to hold it down. Poke two small holes in the plastic somewhere near the center for ventilation.
◙ Take the plastic off the next morning to water the area and recover it with the plastic. Do not go past 2 days or your new grass will turn yellow and you will have to start all over again.
◙ This works best in the spring and the fall. Do not try it in the middle of the summer. The temperature will be too high under the plastic.
◙ I am a cheapskate so I get free plastic by having furniture stores save those big clear plastic bags that mattresses come in. :)
