Ran out of egg rock, I’ll pick up the rest tomorrow, but you get the idea.View attachment 24772
Looks good.

I just finished up adding a greenhouse, expanding a garden and adding a second area to grow veggies (and tied into landscape irrigation system to automate the sprinklers I added). That kind of work is a good workout and a great way to work off stress.

Edit to ad yikes my pics look like shit but you get the idea.

You build those tiered planters in the greenhouse?

I let my garden go over the last two years. About to rent a bobcat to clear it, pop a greenhouse their and a smaller open air garden.

My project right now. Put turf builder down about 2 weeks ago. now about to put some feed down.
Not sure what type of grass you have, but you might want to consider putting in some plugs to fill the gaps if you don’t want to re-sod entirely. Would also add some lime, which would make the fertilizer more effective.

I really like the way this is shaping up. It is going to look great when you finish it. And don't be impatient...it took the Egyptians 20 years and 200,000 worker to build the great pyramid.
