  1. Miserable out there the last few hours. Heavy rain, temps in the lower 50's. Just turned on the heat, ftl.
  2. What a difference a week makes.....green, flowers, buds. Flipping a switch. What do folks do for striping (no, Kevin--I"m not looking for directions to the Blue)? Did you buy an attachment? Make your own? Needing to buy a mower and want to be ready. TIA.
  3. Agree. This is an I Need Snow, Hubb, Hippy special.
  4. Spring arrived overnight. Feels great this morning. Open 'em up.
  5. Got seed down on the front lawn last evening; hopefully that will fill in some rough areas and generally provide some further density. I had a landscaper take a look at the backyard disaster. Grading, filling, removal of a lot of crap. Still waiting on an estimate.
  6. I will likely put down some seed today. The upcoming several days will provide some natural watering.
  7. A nice thing about being a mile from the airport is having (reliable?) readings. 1.23" as of the 7:00a.m. reading. I think the fertilizer I put down yesterday is fertlizing the water table.
  8. Thanks....I raked it out yesterday. With the upcoming rains, I feel good about putting the fertilizer in. It's not a pre-emergent, but I think I'll let it do its stuff and then put down seed. Perhaps next weekend will work given the rains this week to help the fertlizer get drawn in.
  9. I would not fertilize anywhere near my water supply.
  10. Bumping this up for feedback before I put down any fertilizer (before tomorrow night's rain seems like a good time to get it down). Advice on my 3 steps above welcome!
  11. Managed two peeks of the sun this morning--hopefully the clouds will dissipate.
  12. Well, I think we're doing some major overhaul of the backyard disaster, so I have nothing to concern myself with that at this point. In the front though, I'm looking to just do a quick and dirty job without any real focus on ph-levels or any such things. So......I'm guessing I need to: 1) rake out all the dead stuff 2) fertilize--any suggestions of type? I figure that's more a concern for me at this stage than brand 3) seed. How long after I fertilize? Thanks!
  13. And this is why spring in New England royally blows. I wonder if Pit2 is snowing.
  14. Hey, only 7 months untill weenie googles start showing the first inklings of snow opportunities for 2019-20, and 7 months + one day until James' first post of a '78 redux that's going to demolish Cape Cod, MA.
  15. Pretty succinct forecast for tonight.
  16. Apparently, some geological disaster occurred overnight: Worcester Regional Airport MA 9.9692099683869E+36°N 9.9692099683869E+36°E (Elev. -32767 ft)
  17. Congratulations--that's awesome! Let the moneypit times commence. Do you need to change your name or are you still in Taunton?
  18. Back to the important turkey aspects of the pattern discussion: https://www.foxnews.com/us/woman-hit-by-frozen-turkey-tossed-through-windshield-in-2004-dies
