Weeds invading

<< < (2/5) > >>

RobbyMac:
We've used some ortho spray in the past with success. It doesn't kil all of them, but rid of about 90% of them.
I for one don't care much about them, they're usually gone after a few weeks anyways, except they sure dull the mower blades right quick.
Of course, we mow 5 acres... that might affect the amount of time I put into 'manicuring my lawn' (ie as little as possible)

shmokes:
5 acres!!!  Sweet holy Mary Jesus mother of god!  Of lawn?  My god . . . that's WAY too much.  Like 90% of that should be xeriscaped (or have a tennis court and pool).  Are you mad?  Are you a masochist?  Who needs that kind of upkeep?   ;D

And don't buy into xeriscaping being some ugly nonsense for tree-huggers.  I guarantee if properly done it looks 1000x better than 5 acres of grass.

Gorotsuki:
Learn to love dandelions?

Heh, ignore this. I'm just a guy
that hates yard work.

Hoopz:
I tried to convince my dad when I started mowing the lawn that we needed astroturf.

Now, I enjoy watching my stepson mow the grass.  Cold beer in hand as he learns the joy of yard work.  I've got less than an acre so it doesn't compare to the 5 acres that RobbyMac has.   Still, I think I could enjoy watching him mow 5 acres with a beer in hand.   ;D

RobbyMac:
Its a house out in the country. A rather old house unfortunately that my wifes parents had owned and we wound up purchasing. Thankfully my wife likes yardwork. Apparantly I'm a good handyman? 1 acre would have been more than adequate. I'm not fond of mowing 5. The lot is actually 8, but the back 3 are rented by the christmas tree farm next door. I would love to offer them another 4.
