Turf Battle

This photo shows the final accumulation of material. After I spread sand and clay I spread some lime.
I have a Scotts Accu Green 1000 drop spreader. I had my doubts about its ability to spread sand and clay. It worked fine set at the highest number. I was surprised. I'm glad I experimented with it. I'm thinking that in the future as the ground absorbs the sand and clay, I can continue to add sand and clay as I think fit in this manner.
A few years ago we got a county analysis of our soil and it recommended the addition of lime.
So I am feeling good about these additions to the turf; the sand, the kitty litter, or clay, and the lime. I think this is a step in the right direction to beefing up the lawn and making it more healthy.
I can say that since I applied these materials, the turf really soaks up the water like never before. Before it would puddle and be muddy. Now, it seems to just do right, or at least much better.
We'll see...
