I still need to do my last run. Waited until Nov last year iirc
recently got a doggo and she did a number on my yard this winter with pee spots. I'm currently trying out some Scott EZ Seed and hoping that helps will them back in.I've recently been hosing down the grass every time she pees and hopefully that will help.
In case you aren't aware, it's tough but you have to keep that pre-emergent off your starter stuff.Sent from my moto g power using Tapatalk
My yard is like WWI. Lots of energy and money expended, lots of killing, lots of chemical warfare, desperate attacks, stubbornness, fear. But nothing ever changes. The trenches don't move. The yard is the same. War is hell.

However she did more damage this winter. Will need to fill those in again.Thinking of putting down some pre-emergent this weekend for the rest of the lawn. Pretty excited.

Pretty excited.My backyard hates me for getting a nutjob GSP like Milo who literally sprints circles around the garden and back/forth between fences slamming on the brakes each time. I fenced off the worst part of the yard and put down some EZ Seed a couple of days ago. If that works I'll just move to another part of the yard in a couple months until eventually I have to go back to where I first started.

I probably should have worded it differently. What time frame should i start seeding? I think last year I started some too late and it was dried out by summer.
why do people like grass so much
Quote from: stunted on March 24, 2021, 02:50:10 PMwhy do people like grass so muchI really wish we didn’t have a lawn. But based on the houses I’ve seen without lawns I’m increasingly convinced it’s a necessary evil.
As I start to do one thing to improve my house/yard the next thing just bugs me more. I have raked a couple areas and spread some scotts ez seed and am going to water the crap out of it, but I don't have a ton of hope, more of an experiment. May need to just re-sod a couple areas???Also, I got a solo stove and want to put some rock around it where there is a dead spot and the guy asked me for measurements and because I mentioned the hole from where the slide landing was he asked me for measurements and mentioned pitch and I was like "I'll measure it and get back to you" and now am just going to respond: "actually you will need to take a look, I have no clue."
My friend got a solo stove and canco they rule and are way less smoky than a normal fire pit. The instagram algorithm really works
Just went and got the mower out of the shed. Only took like 5 minutes to start :Thumbs: That's like a new record. Winterizing actually worked this time. The cheapo i bought from Menards 8 years ago for like $150 keeps on ticking.Checked out the sprinkler system again today. Bad news...gotta small leak at the anti siphon valve. Hopefully the $30 repair kit does the trick.
