Moss Control for Amateurs

This topic has more relevance to how much moss you have and can tolerate rather than your skill level. Having said that there is no doubt an enthusiast will tolerate virtually zero moss in their lawn where a novice or reluctant gardener may feel that ‘if it’s green, what’s the problem?’

Unfortunately, if your lawn is prone to moss it will only get worse to the point you have little or no grass left. You are, therefore, going to have to  do something to tip the scales in favour of the grass. In the Novice section we concentrate on basic lawn care practices and how they can be used to reduce moss invasion. In Amateur we add some simple control procedures but in Enthusiast we go the whole hog of removal and re-seeding. The choice is yours.
