Re: 2020: What Did You Do On Your Lawn Today?

Applied SOP, did some weeding. Then went for a surreal walk around town and saw about three people.

Re: Cyclone’s 2020 Soil Test

Andy! Great to hear your voice. Thanks so much for the recommendations, as always. Truly invaluable help. The thing about a forced “hibernation” from lawn care, I found, is that all you do is think about what you should be doing and how much better things would be if you were doing them. Every time ...

Cyclone’s 2020 Soil Test

Hello Soil Masters, Here is my Logan report for 2020. https://i.postimg.cc/0Mqp9dJ2/B319440-E-8174-44-EB-88-BA-ED4-B85037-AB5.png Unfortunately, due to certain circumstances, I was unable to devote any time to the lawn last year other than mowing it, so nothing has been done since the recommendation...

Re: KBG Cultivar that Loves the Heat!!

I had Emblem at one point and unfortunately had to renovate but gosh was it beautiful. I love my Blueberry, Bewitched and Midnight mix, don’t get me wrong, but I really do wish Emblem were still available.

Absolutely stunning pic, Andy. Must feel wonderful barefoot in the morning dew.

Re: 2018: What did you do on your lawn today?

Threw down milo, pine pellets and kelp help. Looking forward to nice long soaking rains and cooler temps to help the grass recover from heat stress of the last few weeks.

Re: Cyclone’s 2018 Logan Labs Test

If getting my chops busted is the price for the lawn you’ve given me, I’ll gladly pay it every day and twice on Tuesdays. I remember submitting my first soil test (from Rutgers University of all places) and having you set me straight with Logan and help me get on a plan. When you started helping me ...

Re: Killing weeds, Overseeding, Rhode Island

Hi Spalu and welcome! From reading your post I would say that if you're going to do spring grass seed planting, forget about pre-emergent as it will prevent your grass seed from growing. So, if priority number one in your case is getting something green on the ground, I guess I would plant the seed,...

Re: Cyclone's 2017 Soil Test

Wow, it's amazing to see this, especially when taking into consideration the state the soil was in when you first started helping me out five years ago. I can't thank you enough. It's like Christmas morning every year when the soil plan comes in. Thank you for your sensitivity to the tremendous amou...

Re: 2017: What did you do on your lawn today?

Mowed and edged. Put down pine pellets. Prepped a flower bed. The grass isn't uniform height yet. Half of it is still waking up and the other half is growing like gangbusters in dark green tufts the size of dinner plates. So after mowing, the lawn looks like it's covered in dark green lily pads or d...
