How do you grow a nice lawn under an oak tree?
As the trees grow taller, there is more of a root system and shade. Both of these make it difficult for grass to stay healthy and grow. If you put more soil over the area under the tree, you are apt to kill the tree, since it depends on those surface roots. That's not completely true. Oaks do not have surface roots like other trees, so it is possible to add a few inches of top soil without harming the tree. Using shade seed and lots of lime to counteract the natural acidity of the oak will improve your lawns success.
