Hi, I started a new lawn from cheap sod in late March and it mostly died by now, I put some seeds down in May to “overseed” the struggling sod, but it did not work very well. I surely read a million pages on the web about lawn care, but still cannot make up my mind. Do I overseed or reseed/redo the whole lawn which is really tiny little piece of land in the backyard facing north behind the house wall. It gets some 3-4 hours of sun only a bit more in summer, a toddler would want to run there from time to time so I don’t know if this is “heavy traffic” or not?:) Other than that, there was a huge drainage problem two years ago due to a concrete wall (invisible in the picture, under the deck) to stabilize the site which is a very steep slope. It has been solved since with a French drain which works just fine. We live in the suburbs of Tokyo with hot&humid summers and mild winters with little or no snow. Other than that, everything is a struggle since Japanese retail choices for anything are usually 1, 2 or, well, sometimes 3. Thus, choosing seeds best suited for the area or even if I could dream, buying specific seed mixes is not the reality here. Thank for any and all help! PS. Picture speaks a 1000 words...:)
