eyewall Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I know I have been taking some heat for saying RDU may zero out this year, but there have been plenty of winters where they have only come in with a Trace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that but to get worked up over the GFS in fantasy land is a recipe for major disappointment. Every winter same folks same stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but they would usually back up their thoughts with a brief explanation of their thinking and not a simple “we ain’t getting jack squat” and then leaving.

I'm 72 years old(don't say a damn thing) and 10 years ago I had never mowed my yard in November, December, January or February. Now January is the only non-mowing month I have left. I will not mow in January no matter what. In other news I have daffodils six inches tall with visible buds. A few more warm days and they will bloom.

A few more warm days and they will bloom. I hear you. I think I still have yet to mow Dec, Jan, Feb, mostly because I refuse to, and also b/c I don't have a true lawn and can get away with it. So many trees keep me from having to mow a ton anyway. We didn't have peak leaf season this year until nearly Thanksgiving, by far the latest I've ever seen. If this keeps up our trees won't have to drop leaves anymore and (while tragic) at least we'll get out of raking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just mow as normal and presto, a clean yard. In fact I mulch 100% of the time now. I don't get those irritating rows of grass cuttings when I wait a bit to long to mow.

Iceagewhereartthou Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 I don't do much myself given my lawn situation; just a little right up around the house. I used to just chop them with my mower but I've been pushing the last few years after my rider pooped out on me. My little boy loves to rake leaves (God Bless him!) so I'll take advantage of that while I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
