I have a multitude of problems with my lawn; thatch, moss, shade, and compacted soil. I live in a mountain region so I also have rocky soil. I think I have an understanding of what I need to do, just not sure of the sequence & I don't want to kill what grass I do have. Can you help?

I am by no means an expert, but this what I have learned. If you want to fix your lawn, it isn't a one and done or one month of work and done thing. It is providing the proper type of care needed, only if needed, and during the right season. Thatching is best done in spring. Overseeding is best done in fall. Overseeding should be coupled with topdressing. A very sparse amount of top dressing at that, not even complete cover, just enough to protect some of the seeds, hold moisture, and provide nutrients. The best time to take care of moss is during a dry spell.

Why would you eat avocado if you don't like it? Why not just not eat it? I’m confused, you can just eat something else that’s healthy.

Some people like the nutrition found in them. Avocados have fatty acids and other nutrients, and they don’t have as much calories as butter when you are baking. Other people...

My Cubone is level 35 and it's not evolving (and it's not holding an everstone), why is this? Is it because it's not nighttime? I don't want it to evolve into an Alola form Marowak, though.

It is impossible to evolve Cubone into a Kanto one in Sun and Moon, but if you evolve Cubone into Marowak from another game like X and Y and transfer...

A cat turned up at my mum's and decided that was where she was going to live. I think she's a Turkish Angora, but how would I know for sure?

You could submit a blood sample to the UC Davis Veterinary Genetics Laboratory. They have a DNA test for feline ancestry that will be able to tell you if she...

I'd like to be like Barbie, but I don't really like blonde hair. I also don't want to be tan. Can I just copy her personality and outfits?

Yes, of course you can. You can be kind, brave, confident and friendly like her and that's what a Barbie girl would do.

Can I cut the shapes the night before and if so, can I just stack them on top of each other in some Tupperware? I need to take 28 pieces to school tomorrow for my son and not sure how to transport.

Yes. Place something in between each layer so that they do not stick together. Plastic wrap, parchment paper, wax paper, etc. should work.

My soil is dense and compacted and I plan to overseed. Is it okay to aerate in the spring and again in the fall? Is there something I can top the soil with to improve it?

Yes, to both questions. Aeration twice a year (with soil more dry than moist) and leaving the plugs to naturally break down will help greatly. Top dress with a light...

Gold Coast. Looks like one of my Galloway cow (550kg) has, Laminitis. Has been limping for one week now. Cows are in a paddock but grass is growing slowly now (grass mix of rye, millet, kikuyu, carpet grass. I give each cow an additional 1/4 biscuit of barley hay. Could that cause acidosis?

Have your cow checked out by a veterinarian to determine whether it actually is laminitis or something else like foot-rot, a corm in the hoof, a leg injury, etc. The...
