Thanks. Some 12" reports in there
-
jeff, where's the link to reported snowfall from here. I can never seem to find it. https://www.weather.gov/gyx/ thanks.
-
Snow showers on backside didn't amount to anything. Maybe Monday
-
Lol, I was referring to today's "event" but might as well get ready for a swing and a miss on Mon

In the donut hole
-
Pouring. 38.4f. why are people, me included posting in Dec thread for Nov observation?
-
you're right, the tufts of grass present I believe are orchard grass. They withstand a lot, but this Summer I think the chinch bugs did them in. This happens every year, but no where near this extent and it usually grows back. The damage was so widespread there's nothing left. You can literally just pull out the top layer without any roots left behind. Lat time it was overseeded was 2 or 3yrs ago.

this area actually has quite a bit of soil/sand as the area directly below my weather station is the septic leach field. Of all places where the grass should grow well, yet it doesn't. I mentioned before about rototilling this mess in Spring and reseeding, but the risk is constant sun and without daily watering for weeks on end, it would probably burn out before it got well established. It would probably be best to wait until Fall, but having to look at this all next Summer is painful.

Please make it snow so I don't have to look at this till Spring. Seriously, this pisses me off since I'm not sure how best to fix it shy of starting over. Got all winter to think about it.
-
great, thanks.
-
want to build a snow table. Are there some instructions/guidelines around? How far off ground, how big, how close to house/trees, etc?

Are you using Tapatalk?
-
Enjoy the snow. Side note, I can't see many of the images lately. They are broken links. Not sure if it's a Tapatalk problem or board issue
-
Been on that tbar too. Great fun . I like tbars.
-
Loved the tbar. About halfway up there was a steep section that would briefly tug hard. Some people would fall there
-
We'll be up at the Bernerhof for Thanksgiving. Looks forward to a white today up there... hopefully
-
Was just going to post this. Great news
-
I'm in. As usual, I will bitch my way through every storm
-
Is there a problem with some pics not showing?
-
Where abouts is your new house? You've got exceptional views up there
-
Never saw grubs and I checked a couple times this summer. Did see what I thought were chinch bugs. Local landscaper said this was no way due to lack of water. It would have came back by now if it went dormant.
-
The dead grass just pulls right out. No roots left at all
-
I fertilized twice. Once in April and again in June. Didn't start to die off until August. Pretty sure it's not over fertilized. I'm gonna rotatil it next Spring and start over
-
Never saw grubs, but sometime in Aug I saw bugs in the turf, so assumed chinch bastards.
-
Was fully established. Here's a pic from May 19th. I'm pretty certain it was chinch bug and/or grubs. Devastated
