Oh I've been waiting for this post. This whole yard thing confuses me. By what date is it too late in the Spring to thatch and then put down lime and fertlizer? Can I lime and fertlize at the same time? I agree, Raven, clover is a great ground cover and stays green, by my wife is convinced all the little flowers attract bees and with little kids running around in it, it's like a sting waiting to happen. How can I get rid of it without putting down something the kids shouldn't be rolling around in. Just a related aside, I bought 6 praying mantis egg cases which will hatch lots of natures best bug killers (unfortunately both good and bad). Whew! Thanks for letting me get all that out.
