getting rid of moss?
Question:
What are the cultural practices to get rid of moss?
Answer:
Moss likes shady, poorly drained, compact, acidic soils. UT Extension Agent Chris Cooper says if you work on these problems you can eliminate the moss without spraying. He recommends increasing drainage, aerating the soil, adding lime based on a soil test, and limbing up trees to let in more light.
