In Austin. We are done with freezing. Pretty much high in the 60's and 70's and lows in mid 30's and 40's.
When I scalp, is that the time I level or let it green up more first?

Is your lawn starting to green???

Look at this pretty looking green things starting to sprout! My plans are to level the front yard some this year, and mow closer to 1.5" with my rotary. With seeing the little green beginning to start, what should I start doing now?

So I scalped my front/side yard again and raked up some dead stollens with my hard metal rake and then mowed over it again at the lowest setting. Took some before and after pictures and thought I took pictures of all the stollens I raked before mowing them, but I didn't and there was a lot. So after raking, scalping, raking, and scalping again, I have the final product. My next question is do I still need to verticut my 3 year old lawn, or am I ok with the way I'm doing it right now? It took me 2.5 hours to do about 2,800 sq ft. Also, getting rain for the next 2 days again. This rain is really annoying and I have no rhythm or good timing for any of what I do right now. Very very frustrating.
