I been trying a whole year to grow my grass. No luck at all. pls help

What was the process you used to grow the seed?

I have trouble getting grass to grow too but I know why (dogs and kids). However, my sister and I just bought a new plot of land on which there is only spotting grass, so I began searching the web to find out what could be the cause of it, since the previous owners said they always tried to grow grass but never seemed able to (I want to plant a family garden on the plot but want to make sure the soil can grow stuff before planting). Here is an article I found that is chock full of info about "HOW TO GET GRASS TO GROW WHEN IT DOESN'T WANT TO" (catchy title, eh? LOL) I hope this helps you out. Anita, good luck to you and thanks for turning to Hometalk for some help :)

Process for grass seeding is as follows. Apply a few inches of top soil,grass seed,starter fertilizer topped with peat moss.Seed should be kept moist until it germinates>

I would give it a shot again just as Janet described - is there anything there that you didn't do last time?
