Armed with a power trimmer I'm taking on the hill, cutting the grass, preparing for some civilized landscaping. I've started on top of the hill and will be working my way down.

This was obviously a mistake, tall rye grass is not appealing and looks like a bad hair due after rain.
When the days are at their longest, some of us with large expanses of grass tend to start sinking under the vast quantities of clippings produced.

The grass clippings soon rot down and are a natural feed. This sav

So far this spring our grass seems to be doing VERY well. Last year (first growing season for the new lawn) the lawn just never really grew very well. It wasn't very green, didn't grow very fast and overall seemed to be struggling to stay alive.So last fall we had our soil tested and found out that our soil was very acidic and lacking in some important nutrients that grass needs to grow well. The biggest thing our soil needed was lime in order to "sweeten" the soil and increase the pH. We also had to choose the correct fertilizer based on the soil report.I think the combination of the lime and fertilizer that we applied has worked wonders for the grass. As you can see it's very green and it appears to be growing in much thicker. I'm hoping that the lawn will establish itself much better th

It is a well known fact that the best time to seed your lawn is autumn, after the hottest weather. People must forget this fact though, because most grass seed is sold in the spring. If you do have to seed in the spring, you should do so as soon as the ground thaws. The roots need time to gain strength before the weather gets too hot. In the summer, grass has do deal with dry conditions, hot weather, and competition with weeds. It is tough for it to try to begin growing in these conditions. If you don’t seed in the fall, and miss the early spring window, you should make a temporary lawn out of rye grass until you can make your permanent lawn in the fall. Grass seed is smaller than most other plant seeds, and it should be planted shallow. The larger grass seeds should be fully covered wit

Then put the Head onto a cup. Make sure to leave a long enough "tail" on the pantyhose so that it reaches the water.

Ever notice how much better you seem to feel when you catch the scent of fresh cut grass? I was feeling pretty good already and then my husband cut the grass, so I took myself and a cup of coffee out on the side porch so I could really take it in. My day went even better afterwards.And now, sitting here at my laptop in the livingroom, with the windows and door open, I just caught the scent of fresh cut grass again. Our neighbor is mowing his lawn and I felt a smile come to my face because of it. Amazing, isn't it? A scent can make you feel better for no other reason than it's there. I remember when my gramma died, I was in mom's livingroom when all of us there noticed a strong Avon odor. Gramma always over-wore Avon perfumes.
