A little late getting this posted but wanted to share what's been an exciting journey for my wife and I. This home needed some TLC and updating and here's some of the progress over the past year.
This is what we started with after the home sat vacant and on the market for nearly 2 years without selling. Well maintained inside but completely neglected and dated.
Questions for you since I also reel mow Tahoma.....are you reel mowing all 13k with the 21 inch machine? How often and how much clippings volume do you generate per cut? I don't have grass catchers on the 2653a and the clippings just ruin the final appearance and annoy the wife with dog tracking. What's your normal HOC before the raise to 1/2"? PGR I assume?

This past season I was mowing right at 6k with my walk mower. Once our pool was installed and backyard was sodded that added another 7k sqft so I bought a John Deere 2500 triplex.
I'll triplex all the yard besides the putting green I'll be cutting in this year.
Where would you recommend getting your masonry sand from in the Upstate? The guy I used passed away a few months ago and don't believe I will be able to get it from his location going forward.

You're welcome. Carolina Fresh is in Duncan so that's very close to you.
They carry lots of great products. I ordered 10 yards of black dyed mulch from them last year that I was impressed with. No trash, nicely ground, quality dye that held color for a long time.
Just a few photos from today's soil samples. The darker bag is from the front yard which was treated with humic acid versus the redder sample from the backyard which has never been treated. Interesting to see the comparison between the two.
The Tahoma is also greening up nicely for this time of year.
That's one of the things I really like about this Tahoma 31. The early spring greenup and color retention going into fall is great.
