What is the secret to growing grass in a backyard that has a sand box, lots of sun, a dog, and kids playing? It looks all patchy, sandy and dried out most of the summer. I am hoping to have more time this yr to work on my yard and garden, but wonder what tricks would make it easier.

What organic fertilizers is good for lawns?

sounds like you need a seed that's for high sun, high traffic areas. I'd go to the nursery and ask one of those guys about what grass is best.

Okay- I'll get that! What other wisdom do you have ladies? We play soccer back there, so it's got to be hearty. Also if I'm going to spend the time I want it to take. I patched some areas with some sod from my neighbor who was ripping up her lawn to put in a garden. It didn't survive though. I didn't give it the right attention, but my little seedlings ;) really didn't leave me time.
