  1. want to drop the winterizer fert but gonna need some rain first, what we received here last night wasn't enough irrigation stays on for the time being. can't remember the last time it was needed in October
  2. drove much of Massachusetts today and the colors were stunning. Springfield to Bridgewater to Boston to Burlington and back. Peaking along I-90 and I-495 today down to 39F here
  3. I saw them around this time too and they were amazing. It was in the middle of the night on a car trip to Maine on I-95 in Rowley MA. I was in the passenger seat and it was just as you described, shimmering moving curtains of light. haven't seen them since, I have a city to my north and the light pollution is really bad here, need to travel at least 30 minutes to get to really dark sky
  4. that's an option, but you might want to park the truck more than 500 feet from the closest house
  5. underground automatic irrigation system here, FTW I usually have it turned off and winterized by now, not this year. If we get some decent rain this weekend, I may finally put it to bed for the winter.
  6. about a quarter inch here, irrigation system stays turned on for now
  7. haven't been to Florida since I was a teenager 40 years ago with any luck, I'll never go again
  8. barrier islands move, they aren't a place for permanent development
  9. That’s not how it was originally presented
  10. finally fixed the leaks in the irrigation system and got it back on; the lawn is coming back nicely with this cooler weather
  11. if you do the AC first they can run the line sets inside the walls, and the new siding covers everything up
  12. same experience here, installed 8 years ago. we also own the system outright and the power they produce. Leasing the panels just puts the majority of the monetary benefits into someone else's pockets
  13. there is a way to do it manually by cutting and pasting as plain text
  14. still early in the season; that will probably change
  15. small hail here, solar inverter turned off
  16. TOR watch just hoisted for MBY local weather stations recording DPs between 77 and 80
  17. maybe @HoarfrostHubbwill edit the thread title
  18. it's been so hot my lawn looks like crap too. new england lawns don't like hot summers
  19. is it really $70 per bag ? I found this helps quite a bit, helps shade the lawn and reduce crab grass germination, also forces the crab grass that does germinate to grow vertically upward and not horizontally outward. The other thing worth mentioning is the crab grass preventer is a barrier that can be "broken" by disturbing the soil by raking, etc., so once the barrier is down don't disturb the soil
