You don't understand the true meaning of drought. Hydrological reservoirs and water tables not some dried out grass that goes dormant every summer.

Lawns go dormant in summer. Let nature do its thing. Find some organic fertilizer substitutes and care about the pollution more than how your neighbors look at you. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonegalt Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Lawn thread! I reduced my lawn size by 2/3 and I scalp the piss out of what I now mow to retard the growth. I would kill it if I could but it always grows back as green as can be. No nutes, no watering, no wasted hours. Kill your lawns. 3 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggs for days. But yeah, all of those chicken droppings go around the fruit trees for slow steady nitrogen all year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fields are meadows now. I bush og selectively every few years. Take out the trash scrub just leaving grasses, firs, birch and maple. No popple (poplar) ever. Not many ticks up here. Never saw one in the house the 10 yrs we had a corgi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radarman Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 This morning's half inch pushed us past Feb 2020 to 2.5" for the month. Still have a chance to add to it next weekend, but no guarantee, and curtains for the month thereafter. Not sure if we've ever had a snowless February here, but I kind of doubt it. Also had a 0" for December. Willing to bet we've had a completely snowless December before but not in a while. 2018 I recorded a grand total of a quarter inch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
