Hi all. I hope someone can help me. My front yard is completely grass free. Someone got the bright idea of putting down that black paper stuff and covering it with wood chips. While it's a great idea so you don't have any grass to mow, it isn't a good idea since all the stray cats use it for a litter box :S Anyway, what I would like to do is get rid of all the chips and paper, and seed the lawn to create some grass. Is this possible at this point in the season? It has been like that for many years so I lifted the tarp (whatever it is, can't think of proper term) and the dirt is black, wet and is packed down but doesn't seem to be too bad since no one walks on it as a rule. I don't want anything fancy, just a normal front lawn. It's also pretty small. Not sure of the exact size but maybe 20'x20'. Thank you for all your help you may be able to give :D
