This is could bees.
More fertilizer or manure spread in that area.
Different kind of grass seed
Is it close to a septic tank area.
Could it be an area where fresh dirt had been spread different than the slow growth area
Is that area watered more often
I had an area where the city waterline had sprung a leak and the grass grew there a lot higher till they repaired it. The ground there was a lot wetter
These are just ideas.

The initial population of a town is 2800, and it grows with a doubling time of 10 years. What will the population be in 12 years

The population doubles in ten years so the annual growth is the tenth root of two. The growth in twelve years is the annual growth rate raised to the twelfth power.

The tenth root of two is about 1.0718 . That value raised to the twelfth power is about 2.2974 . Multiplied by the initial population of 2800 gives 6433.

I have treated the area with roundup for about a 70% kill rate. A friend just mowed over the area. Will this impact the ongoing kill, and do I need to spray the area again?

When was the field mowed after spraying? If it was after three days, then the plants that were treated will die off. You probably should plan to retreat the areas that weren't killed after those plants are growing again. (It will take a few days depending on moisture and other conditions.)

In general, you can spray any missed plants 7 days after the first treatment. Then mow or seed the area 3 days after the second treatment.

If the field was mowed prior to the three days after the first treatment, retreat the entire area after the new growth begins.

For specific details, read the label for your Roundup product. Scotts has the label at the bottom of their product pages. All of the Scotts Roundup products are listed here: http://www.scotts.com/smg/catalog/productCategorySubSelf.jsp;jsessionid=64F09279DC15FE8877450FE65C85C38E?itemId=cat50096&navAction=jump . Select the specific one you used and click on the View Product details link. Then click on the View Label link. For example the label for the Roundup RTU (ready to use) Pump and Go Spray formulation is here: http://www.scotts.com/smg/products/round_up/kill_and_prevent_weeds/pdf/BasePNG.pdf .

I hope this helps.

I have a Simplicity Zero-Turn 20 hp 50" cut. Just recently when mowing I have "clumps" of grass all over the yard. Any idea what would cause this? Also, the mower is supposed to stipe the lawn - I have...

Hi, well you have the cutter too close to the ground, try raising it up a couple of notches.
Now as for the "clumps" on the lawn. Well IF you mean GROWING clumps, that's because the mower is dumping the cut grass in a pile, somewhat, and that's adding nutrients to that particular Patch, and it simply grows faster because it's got more "Food".

If you mean, CUT grass patches, then again your Cutter is Too Close to the ground, and it's dragging the cut grass, and then when it gets too much, it is "packeting" the cut grass, every now an again when it builds up and is left in "piles" instead of being evenly distributed, and driven into the ground, behind the mower.

Can my lawn mower turn into a mulcher? it has a bag which fills up too quickly and we need to know if we can lose the bag or are we stuck with it? trust me, there is no flap or anything like that from the...

When you take off your bag isn't there a flap that slams shut over the hole? If there isn't then you're stuck with it.
Depending on the make, some mfgrs make a mulcher kit with special blades and a chute blocker.
The downside of mulchers is having to mow really dry grass twice a week or you'll have clumps of green glop all over the yard.
