2 year transformation in zone 6b
I somehow managed to transform my back yard in zone 6b from a dirt pit, into a respectable little slice.
First pic is from May 2023, and the 2nd pic is from September 2025. 2 seasons of fall overseeding with twin city resilience II and a regular fertilizer schedule throughout the year.
I don’t typically use any herbicides in the back because of my dog, and her urine definitely results in having to patch in the spring, but nevertheless, it turned out alright.
It’s already starting to green up nicely this spring. Super pumped for the next month, thanks for all the advice!
