Pro tip. Dead spots must be removed completely before regrowth can occur. Instead of buying plugs. Use a donut cutter or a small shovel to cut out a round plug of grass from a nice area of your grass. Plant it in the bare area, cover it with soil and it will grow in. Fill the hole you cut out of with soil and the grass will grow back .
Water water water is the lifeblood of the grass here in the hot summer.
Sounds like I need to sit you down, buy you a drink, and pick your brain! When might you be available??
