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

Got outside to examine the areas where I've been painting quack. It started to rain so I went to the garage and replaced the back wheels of my Honda HRR216. I've been using a Toro Lawn Striper and the weight is hell on the back wheels...

Re: I Used Cheap Seed!!! How to Fix?

Just found the forum after deciding to get serious about my lawn. I just sent my soil test off to Penn State for a test so I'm awaiting the results. ...I realize this seed may contain noxious weeds - those aren't my concern as I will be plucking out any weeds that come up regardless as I do already...

Re: Certainty Best Practices that you've Learned Over the Years

I'm curious about this myself. I have a infestation of quack in my front yard and purchased Certainty after reading several threads on here. I planned on conducting tests in my back yard first; if successful I would then move to the front yard.

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

Hey folks, newbie here. I've enjoyed reading the other posts. Today I mowed for the 7th time this season, removed some old leaves from the flower beds and painted quackgrass in the front yard with RU.
