2025 Lawns & Gardens Thread. Making Lawns Great Again
backedgeapproaching replied to Damage In Tolland's topic in New England
Tall Fescue thrives the best in part shade. Jonathan Green has a mix that is all Tall Fescue I believe. I'm sure Lesco does too. If it is full shade, then nothing will grow there well (as far as grasses--Bluegrass, fescue, ryegrass). Still will need 4-6 hours of sunlight for it to thrive. -

I dont think we steined like you guys did, but would have to check. Its definitely snowcover related. This is pretty unusual, its normally not this green. This is the first time living here I went wall to wall snowcover though too. (Outside of a couple days in JAN. My backyard has full snow cover still. -

Section of my front yard going quick down to grass this week. Prob 70 percent green, with some snow mold too. Assuming the non stop snow cover from Nov helped. -

Really don't know how these 3 came away with just minor injuries, small plane into the side of Mt Equinox and minor injuries is crazy. https://www.wmtw.com/article/vermont-plane-crash-equinox-mountain-manchester/63935470

Can let him confirm, but I think West Wardsboro. Great pack retention area.

I would guess somewhere in NVT. Looks like JSpin had 18.8" which is highest I see on Cocorahs so far. We'll see when BTV puts out there 2 day PNS totals report. I would guess there might a 20" spot in there.

7" here since 7PM. Absolutely nuking.

Yea, this was downslope special for western slopes here up through RUT. Any strong LP that cuts west of here always brings the winds it seems.

I lived here 11 years and this might have been the biggest wind assault I can remember. 8 hours straight and gusts to 57mph. 3 inches at 7AM and then just sideways snow/sleet for hours and hours. Crazy part is it was definitely confined to immediate western slopes, in Manchester town center it was almost calm, maybe 10mph literally couple miles away.

Yes

Just started here in SVT after some virga. Pretty much all snow grains at the moment.

I know this town and region survive on tourism, but this weekend is going to be a zoo on steroids and not looking forward to it...ha. As DMC mentioned, I tried the Shaws in Manchester and had to leave as there wasn't a single spot and couldn't imagine the lines inside. Makes you appreciate living local and being able to pick and choose heading to the hill and just around town stuff. I appreciate PFs attitude of "enjoying the chaos" cause he has to since he works in the chaos
