I have started the process to convert about 600sq ft of area that goes from middle of front lawn to middle of the first tree. Removal of existing grass. Leveling out with multiple loads of top soil. Then a top layer of 50/50 loam/compost. Then sodding with Lat 36.
I have measured the sunlight the area gets and it's about 6ish hours throughout the day of direct sunlight. A mix of morning and evening. The tree is raised pretty high too. For the areas that don't thrive, I'll likely overseed with fescue in the future.
The rest of my lawn on the north side is a mix of Astro/common/Yukon. Currently cutting reel low. 7/8in. Working down to 1/2in in the coming weeks.
Sod set for Friday.
