psv88 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 50 this morning. Great time to overseed and patch up some areas. I seeded some bare areas last weekend and already have a ton of new grass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got my water bill for June, July and August, a whopping $38 for 31,000 gallons. We water away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 I haven't run a sprinkler in 20 years. I don't actually believe that a lawn deserves to exist if it needs to be maintained artificially. Heck, all of this landscaping to make your property look like am arboretum drives me nuts. Take that same time and money and use it for toys, things to go play with and get some exercise. Your personal physical and mental health is far more important than some pretty bushes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your personal physical and mental health is far more important than some pretty bushes My lawn has had zero maintenance sans mowing for at least 30 years, and it's hard to imagine anybody before that going to the trouble of overseeding, fertilizing, or even watering multiple sloped acres with tons of trees. Aerial imagery of my yard from 1936 shows that the major features of the landscape have remained mostly unchanged since then, so it's possible nobody's done any major work on the lawn for quite some time.

IrishRob17 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I’m in the middle of the two extremes, I typically do fertilize once a year but I use less than what is recommended on the bag. I will seed any bare spots that may develop and I’ll over seed every couple years if I think it’s even needed. I don’t water the lawn anymore though, it’s just a waste.

Warmest second half of September by a wide margin at Newark and 3rd driest. That record breaking summer ridge that set all the records for heat and drought in the PAC NW finally came east during the second half of September.

Funny how we recently get these steep lapse rate days before and after the summer but not during. Almost like the recent summers have been to warm at the midlevels to produce.
