So I scarified this grass about a month ago, and now there are dark brown patches scattered in many different sections of the lawn. The build up under the grass was very thick so I done about 5 passes with the aerator and a little bit more probably would of even come up if I done a couple more passes

The fifth picture shows the brown patches where the red squares are, but there are many more sections of those patches in the grass. The pictures after that show close ups of the brown patches.

I never aerated, topdressed or overseeded it but I've decided I will do that this week

My question is, with those brown patches, should I fork them over or just scarify those sections? I just want to be sure the seeds will catch and come through in those sections but its a large area of grass with those patches in many different spots so I dont want to have to fork it over if I dont need to.

Thanks.

So I recently posted about my Stihl RMA 448VC not starting. I will post the link here for reference

It’s still not working but just to give more context, I have now realised it makes this clicking sound as I pull the control lever. This is the lever that you pull on after pressing the side button to make the lawnmower start. Hopefully this helps diagnose what the problem is. Thanks!

Anyone got any idea why this lawnmower won’t start. I’ve had it a long while and it’s had a lot of use to be fair, but this is the first time I’ve ran into this problem with any of my battery tools.

This is a Stihl RMA 448VC. I’ve tried using multiple batteries that definitely work in my other tools. I’ve used multiple of those little activation keys that definitely work in my other tools. I’ve checked to make sure nothing is clogging or blocking the blades. The cables all seem fine from my unprofessional eye. The little side button you press as part of the start up process feels normal when I press it. The self propel doesn’t even work anymore either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, if not I will have to take it to a local shop to be repaired. Thanks in advance
