How do I transform my yard with weeds into grass??

Thank you for the links!

You are absolutely correct. But it does cost significantly more money. I had to do this myself this past spring. I had my backyard regraded and seeded with fescue and clover. I would have loved to do sod for instant gratification and easier for the dogs and cats as I had to keep them out of the yard for a solid month. Sod cost alone for my small back yard would have cost $2,500 plus the cost of regrading. I could not afford that, so seed was the way to go, for those with less of a budget. Seed was $29 for fescue and $14 for white clover.

Holy moly that’s a wad of money for sod! But in Ca., I guess it’s the going rate. Here in Georgia, it cost less than $700 for grading and sod for .79 acres.

Grading alone cost $1,200 and that is less than what most people pay. And I have a small yard compared to other areas. I will take a photo of it this afternoon. I would have happily paid $700 - and on over 3/4 of an acre no less! Well I would rather live in GA too, but finding a job is not easy in outlying areas. May be when I retire!
