Thankfully, it's a relatively small patch because we have a small yard so we've gone the seed route too. Sod adds up quickly. Next year we're going to pull up most of the grass and do some landscaping -- oh what a big project that's going to be.Pickleshttp://www.goodpickles.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7292285026495708432.post-37799081248762171712012-06-02T12:38:42.901-04:002012-06-02T12:38:42.901-04:00A Canadian Foodie -- maybe in the end, sod would b...A Canadian Foodie -- maybe in the end, sod would be better. But we opted to seed because it's less expensive, I wanted to put down grass that would be less susceptible to problems in the future (which is why we went with fescues) and our lawn was pretty bumpy (from roots, probably), so we wanted to flatten it out anyway.PGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02160883537054763513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7292285026495708432.post-30344364695244067542012-06-02T11:05:30.923-04:002012-06-02T11:05:30.923-04:00That is an epic story and great to have it all in ...That is an epic story and great to have it all in photographs. Now why didn't you lay sod after all that work? Why plant seed where it would be so much more work with undetermined results (weeding - etc). I am curious as in Edmonton sod is not that expensive anymore. It used to be... and was thinking it may be very expensive where you are...

We ended up enlarging the patio, adding a lot more perennial/wild flower gardens and finally hiring a lawn service to help keep the rest healthy.kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10462007067131792229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7292285026495708432.post-13429916034641800202012-05-29T11:42:53.508-04:002012-05-29T11:42:53.508-04:00What a lot of backbreaking work!!
