Stolen off FB. Go Bucks!

For the commentator Urban on Saturday. Go Blue!

Here’s what I did. Same ugly fence problem.

Irrigation is critical. In the heat of summer the tree will win the moisture battle every time.

Any stolon activity this time of the year? Or do you feel these are young plants?

I don't have photos, but I've been pulling out Triv the past few weeks, and it does not consistently have a noticeable ligule as it's "supposed to". I don't know if this a is a time of the year thing, or what. Just a heads-up for everyone...you can't necessarily go by the ligule length to ID it. Tr...

Guys
See soil test below. The only thing I would improve is OM. All suggestions are welcome.

Not trying to derail the thread but it seems fairly easy to find clean elite KBG seed, that obviously comes with a high price. One thing I have noticed is finding elite PRG with “0% other crop and noxious weed”. I’ve looked into SSS and even they have don’t have a 0%. Has anyone had experience in f...

Cool temps on the way next week. Don’t sweat it this year. Eagle worked really well for me with rust.

@MassHole two different approaches For a established lawn that it is on maintenance: A low level of N in spring is ideal. This is to keep a healthy grow, but not a vigorous grow. Why? carb reserves. The plant stores carbs during the fall in the roots. Pushing for extra grow, will consume the carbs ...

It looks like we bypass fall and are going straight to winter.

Late spring and an early winter makes for a short growing season

Any updates?

Mazama, Bewitched, Award, Nuglade KBG and a little Grand Slam GLD PRG. Very happy with this mix in my zone. Super dark, can’t wait for spring.

This one was taken on July 6th 2019. This was likely one of the best pics that I captured in 2019.

The Jedi Master of LawnCare no doubt

Last update of the season. Applied .25 lb per k of urea today before the rain for my last app. https://i.postimg.cc/fLqRby28/AB29978-C-53-DF-4-ACD-AAF6-631-FD3-DAA659.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/7Z1P2mtG/120226-F9-CE2-A-4-ED5-BB6-A-494-A3-C9-E57-A9.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/ZKd5TTrL/1-B7753-CB-903-B-442...

I forgot to mention that I would only be doing about 500sqft. My front lawn is very small and I could easily use a sprinkler.

Yeah mine was 16k with 30 yards of compost top dressing. You got this, no problem.

Put down .25 lbs per k of urea. Also applied RGS at 3oz per k as well as 1 tbsp of Feture per k. Might be my last app of anything as we are going to see accumulating snow this week, My KBG is super dark at the moment.

It can be done. I did a KBG reno the first of June in Michigan. I fought grassy weeds and some fungus all summer. If you don’t have the budget for chemicals, wait until Fall.

Stihl all the way, not even a question. I have a handheld BG 85 blower that I bought in 2000. Still running strong.

I have 6 bags of this in my shed for next season. I hope it’s good stuff.

And a new basketball pole to boot.....looking good!
