    What's happened to my new lawn?

    That looks like a sun job to me...our lawn on the back garden ended up like that in the end after the dog had half ruined it besides.

    grass seed still not growing

    Shouldn't do any harm, but if its wet the soil, and grass seedlings, may stick to your boots ..... I suggest putting a board down, and working from that.

    Ideas to protect my front grass

    Pete, I agree. I live in a cul de sac and sometimes we can have as many as 6 or 7 vans and pickups taking up the limited parking spaces.
