Post Body

Is it safe / smart to dethatch my lawn this time of the year?

I have chunks of dead grass intertwined with my new grass in my front lawn. This is the first time I’ve seen my lawn with any brown in it so far this year which is confusing.

It’s cool weather grass and the temps are averaging around 70-75* currently, minus a fluke the other day of high 80’s.

I water this lawn (front) every morning so it’s plenty hydrated. Should I water again in the afternoon sun?

Thank you! Appreciate all of you and this community.
