Iâd first decide wether or not you wanna do anything to your space, honestly now is the time before it get too committed with your lawn. Though if grass is your priority then thereâs a decent amount of work needed, Iâm assuming this is the north side of the property so youâll have tons of shade, you can actually see the shade line and dead grass, so the question is what grass would you like and and if you wish to do a full reset or if you have a cost in mind, you could strip it out and resod it with a shade tolerant variety of st.augustine but itâs pretty expensive. Alternatively you could do Bahia seed and mix it into the yard but Iâd definitely remove as much of that thatch layer to get down to the sand for seed to soil contact. Because itâs sand the other question is if thereâs irrigation back there, if you really want a good full yard youâll need plenty of water especially since you have sand. Youâll also need to do a post and pre emergent treatment for the weeds and I recommend that sooner then later since itâll only get worse since temps are rising and weed seeds will be waking up.
