Re: 2020: What Did You Do On Your Lawn Today?
Turned on the sprinklers after throwing down some Winning Colors Plus seed on the mole trails. This one is an elusive little devil. I am determined to catch him this week.

Re: 2018: What did you do on your lawn today?
Finally able to mow some grass and mulch some leaves. Disconnected the hoses.
Caught another mole. They destroyed 30% of my front lawn this year. I mean destroyed. Ugh.

Re: Weeds or overseed?
Thank you gentleman.
I don't know how much dormancy I have. I'm still needing to mow every 4 days. Realistically, the chances of being able to fit in a second app in a timely fashion are slim so, I'll wait until the heat breaks.

Weeds or overseed?
Being my rookie year of soil tests, herbicides, fertilizers & watering schedules on an old established lawn of probably fescue in the transition zone, I was content to lay low on killing weeds for the next couple months because of the heat (a lot of 90+ days). Question 1: I have a lot of ground ivy,...

Re: 10-24-17 Koz/Logan soil test
Wanting to put down the first app of balanced fertilizer (Greenskeeper's Secret). If I want 1lb N / 1k sq ft & have 40lb bags of 12-12-12... .12(40) = 4.8 lbs. So, a 40lb bag should cover ~5k sq ft. Right? BUT... the bag says 2 cups is approx 1 lb. and 7-8 cups covers 1K sq ft. If 40 lbs.= ~80 cups ...

Re: 10-24-17 Koz/Logan soil test
Thanks HLG;
It's great that I have good soil. This was all farm land 60 years ago. That may have something to do with it. I appreciate the guidance. I will certainly incorporate your recommendations.
So, I'm off to kill some weeds.
Thanks again.

Sorry, I interpreted the directions as requiring a link to a pic of the test only & not a URL to my post. My apologies.

I don't anticipate achieving master gardener status in the next few years without a complete reno but I would like to get mostly grass with few weeds. Living i...
