add mulch and cinder to try to slowly get the thatch layer thicker and thicker to clear the rocks.. also hand remove as many rocks as you can.... it takes a few yrs sometimes, but eventually you can have a soft lawn with a thatch layer that covers the rocks below... I did this to my moms place on 11th in HPP..
then once you mow the lawn NEVER remove the clippings (take off bag), let them mulch up to feed lawn and make a thicker thatch...
my moms place... 12 yrs ago it was pahoehoe lava covered with 1-2" of weedy dirt and Uluhe near the Ohias... now soft green lawn between the trees and we never added seed or anything.
