About Obsessed Lawn

Obsessed Lawn covers lawn care, landscaping and gardening, and the gear that goes with them: how to mow, feed, seed and water, what to plant and what to skip, and how to deal with the weeds, pests and bare patches that show up every season.

Who’s behind it

Matt Hagens

Matt Hagens is the founder of Obsessed Lawn and writes the articles here. He’s a Pennsylvania homeowner with a lawn to keep up, a garden, three daughters and a dog named Liberty. What you read on the site comes from what he has tried in his own yard and what he has researched for it.

How we approach it

  • Written for homeowners. Each article covers what the problem is, why it’s happening and what to do about it, in the order you’d actually do it.
  • Your grass and your region matter. Timing and products depend on whether you have a cool-season or warm-season lawn and where you live. When that changes the answer, the article says so.
  • Safe for kids and pets first. Where a product or method has a safer alternative, it gets mentioned.
  • Corrections welcome. Products get discontinued and advice changes. If something here is wrong or out of date, let us know through the contact page and it will be fixed.
