After a lot of manual labor, research, and time I finally got an ok looking lawn. Before was full of weeds and dirt etc. beginning of April I began scalping the lawn (omg so much fkn moss) . I used a scarifier/ power rake to till up the top layer of dirt, then brought out the dump trailer and began spreading out topsoil, ( I did aerate before this). After spread the seed, covered with peat moss and about 4 weeks later started to see good germination. This is now week 6 post seed.
Next project is to tackle the backyard! Let me know what you guys think.

Good work. Hope it continues to thrive 😀
wtf is going on with the background on pic 3?
Wowzaaa 😍😍😍😍
I’m really new to this area of reddit but have a lawn with pretty similar patchiness, but more NE so more clay. I was curious with the grass you used, maybe a bit of a price breakdown if you don’t care? I’m just really trying to put everything into my yard this year if I’m not too late and this miracle gives me hope lol.
((((side eyes as a lawn girl)))
Fantastic! Is it shaded or partial shaded area?
