Scarify it. Hire the machine. Do it yourself job & throw out New grass seed by hand.
Will look cat for a month but will be like a new lawn afterwards.

Mowing too tight too bro, brings on moss especially on ground not getting good sunlight.
There’s no top soil there
I’d scarify it before a costly reseeding job.
Will need to do my own lawn too but it’s the guts of 3/4 of an acre.
Treaty Stones is on the money, no soil depth. You can pick from:
A) Dig it up, kill the weeds, horse in topsoil and re-seed.
B) Tarmac it with green tarmac.
C) AstroTurf it for the green effect.
No handy solution I’m afraid.
@farmerinthecity Get an iron rake, spend some time scarifying it (raking it really hard). It looks pretty uneven, so I’d buy a few bags of topsoil (you can get it specifically for lawns).
But, stop mowing it so low. When you mow that low, you stress the grass and that gives the weeds the opportunity to grow. Regular mowing, you should only be taking the top third off the grass. That way, the roots of the grass don’t stress , grow well and knock out the weeds.
That’s a lot of onions.
My children pulled up all the radishes and a few lettuces today.
I give some to my parents and bros and sisters… Ah shite… All fucked?
About half the radishes were too small but the rest were fine. They left the lettuce outside so only spotted it this evening when I was watering.
Ah bollox, lettuce is Hardy enough… Or was it totally fu ked
Twas lying in a wilted pile on the ground.
Ah there’s plenty more there.
You broke the deal. There’ll be hell to pay.
That garden is a credit to you.
If you’d managed the photo a tad better, to incorporate the island with the quartz worktop and the robot mowing the grass you’d have a Good Reply nailed down by dinner time.
Your modesty is quite touching. Great work BTW.
Phenomenal work mate. Makes me homesick for potato growing soil and climate.
Fair play. Those drills couldn’t be more protestant looking if you sprayed “no Pope here” on the wall.
