After Raking Thatch Bare Spots And Little Grass Remain

Question From: B. Lemal - MINNESOTA
Q: We just moved into a row house with a small front yard. It was full of thatch, but I used a rake and removed it. Now there's a little grass left, and a lot of bare spots. What do you recommend doing to get our lawn growing? Thank you very, very much for your help.

A: I recommend you re-seed it. Use the instructions at Yardener for Repairing Lawns. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy.
