What can I plant in dandelion graves?
I've been very active this year religiously pulling dandelions with a dedicated weed removal tool and my lawn is virtually free of the "yellow menace" now. When I pulled the dandilions out, a small but noticable hole is left behind. Typically I step on the hole in an effort to close it, but I feel like I should fill it in with soil or something. Can someone recommend a good solution to fill the many holes on my nice green lawn?
Leave the holes: they'll help to aerate your lawn just as well as any man-made hole.
If you have circular patches where the rosette of dandelion leaves has killed the grass, loosen the top inch or so of soil with a handheld cultivator, mix some grass seed into some compost and scatter it over the missing patch. Then keep it well watered for a few weeks until the grass is established.
I suspect either dirt or patience will do the trick... I just paid someone 30 bucks to put a whole bunch of holes in my lawn...
