Hello there,
We have spilt salt on the lawn and its killed the grass, its spread and made big patches and no matter what we do nothing is rectifies the issue.
We have tried watering for ages to try and wash it away.
Food.
Seed.

but nothing is helping and its starting to get me down.


Please help.

Kind Regards

Kerry

Not a lot in the short term.

Salt is a very good killer of all freash water plants.

I don't know of any nutraliser, but will ask a few guys that may have an idea.

For now aerate the ground by sticking a fork in as far as posible so the salt can wash away without spreading sideways, remove a few inches of soil, replace with virgin soil and try re-seeding.
