I have all these bumps in my lawn that I thought were just from general unevennes resulting possibly from frost heaves. On a whim, I decided to poke one spot and see if there was something underneath as it felt quite hard underneath. I discovered these surface roots just several inches under the sur...

Well, this year seems to be early, at least for me. I paused first week of September. Average first frost for me is Sept 11 - 23 but we've had pretty cool temps starting the first week of September. First frost advisory this year was Sept. 4. I feel like everything is about 2 weeks early this year. ...

Thanks for sharing your experience. I am considering close mown turf due to some YT vids I've seen. It seems to knit more at sub 1" heights and really looks like carpet. Not sure about the roots issue though. This guy named Connor Ward recently put up a vid showing his 6-8" KBG roots and he maintain...

I started mulching first week of September.

I thought it was elite KBG!

Haha ok I'll wait until next year.

I am completing testing of something that will strongly encourage tillering, and if all goes well I will publish it in time for use in the Spring. Nice. Can't wait. I wonder if it's a spring regimen kinda like the Fall Regimen but geared specifically for spring time. I'm interested because my fall ...

Well, being that we use Canola oil here as cooking oil I'm not too worried about toxicity.

Thanks Morph!

Very nice Blue Demp. I've always loved the color on your lawn and the shape of it. What cultivar(s) are those?

We had snow in August back in 1992. Yup this place sucks for weather.

Yup. It sucks ballz. Starting every Sept./Oct. I fantasize about moving somewhere warmer.

Try the KBG cultivar "Gravel" or "Mulch".

Two weeks after you're dead. Never...? lol I'll help you out. You're uninitiated here because you're new. General ATY advice is not to do dethatching because it disturbs the soil and brings up weed seeds. Look up BLSC and Kelp help, mulch mow always, use organic ferts like Milo, Soybean Meal, alfal...

lol it will melt. We do get snowed in September from time to time. Apparently we had snow in September for the past 3 years. I don't remember it the past couple years though. Must've melted quickly. This time though crappy weather is supposed to stay until Sunday and temps go back up again a little ...

You should mention how much Tenacity you've applied so far and when you put the blanket spray down exactly. So you did the 2oz./A on Monday, Sept 10/18? I'm guessing when you say you applied a blanket app, that that's 4oz./A? If you've applied only 6oz./A so far, and the yellowing is fading, I would...

And then this happened today. Ugh

Sept 2/18 - Day 97 (4 days after FAS) https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1896/42626896070_0685f485f5.jpg Sept 8/18 - Day 103 (12 days after FAS. Seems to peak in color at this point) https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1890/43843170474_c328162ed3.jpg Sept 11/18 - Day 106 (15 days after FAS. Color seems to b...

Oh and the fungal issue seems to be under control with my current plan. I'm not sure if it was something that needed intervention as the affected blades were the ones in the lower sections of the plants that were in the densest sections, almost like BBDL issue. In any case I don't want to take chanc...

I remember you posting about this a while back. I was able to stir mine up and get it back to normal consistency. I was actually just about to post an update that the Poa annua is now bleaching 7 days after my last app of 4oz./A. That confirms that the issue I was having of the Poa annua mot bleachi...
