DIY moss removal

Experience and Good Comments

Original: 在大西雅图地区的草地估计都比较多MOSS,感觉我的去除MOSS的经验有点用的,首先我会在初春或者晚秋的时候干这事,因为去除MOSS后还需要补种草。
首先我是去HD买了两袋moss killer,袋装固体颗粒状的,然后撒在草地上(当然不是手撒了,用Spreader),大概过一个星期后,用Dethatcher把moss都除掉(我是从amazon买了个greenworks的Dethatcher,不要尝试用耙子手动除,太浪费时间了,效果还不好),这个过程中会除掉一些草,然后撒上Lime(同样买自HD,感觉这个就是石灰,提高土壤PH值,普遍来说酸性土壤会长moss,所以这步很重要),隔上3天后就可以补种草种了。
通常来说,每年都要来这么一回,不然MOSS还是会越来越多。

Translation by HHY: It is very common for your lawn to have moss in Seattle. Normally I choose to do it early spring or late fall because overseeding is needed after removing moss.

First I would buy two bags of moss killer from HD and then spread it on the lawn using spreader. One week later I would use dethatcher to remove the moss (I bought greenworks detatcher from amazon. Do not try to do it using rakes. too inefficient). Then I would spread some lime and improve the PH value of the soil. 3 days later I can do overseeding.

Normally I need to do this every year.;

Not-So-Good Comments

Original: 自己干比较花时间,估计5000FT总共需要3-4个小时的样子,即使这样也是比请人便宜多了,就是需要自己一次性的投资买入Dethatcher。

Translation by HHY: DIY is a little bit time consuming and it took 3-4hrs to finish 5000 sq ft. However it is much cheaper compared to hiring out. You need to invest to buy dethatcher though.
