Advice needed, please. <br><br>We just had our sewage line replaced (ugh!) and now about 1/3 of our half-acre lot is an ugly, muddy mess, which is a problem in itself, but worsened by our two dogs tracking mud inside. <br>
<br>Would it make sense to lay down sod right now? Though, I am not wed to the idea of turf grass. Is there any grass/weed seed that we could sow right now? It would need to be very resilient to handle foot/paw traffic. The area gets partial shade. If sod or seed won't work right now, I guess I could lay down straw to cover the bare dirt. I would greatly appreciate your thoughts on this!<br>
<br>Another issue is the trench work was about 5 feet from a huge pecan tree. While I'm kicking myself for not taking preventative action, I am wondering if there is anything that can be done to help the tree make a strong recovery? I would also appreciate referrals for an arborist/urban forester. <br>
<br>On the plus side, the area where the garden is going is now free of bermuda grass.<br><br>Thank you so much for your time!<br><br>Tricia Dameron<br><br><br><br><br>
