Location: Boise, Idaho | I like it long. Water all week, mow Sunday afternoons and throw a bunch of clippings away on Monday morning. Makes a lot of sense. I am overdue for pics of the 2010 Collector, but it looks just like the other 49. I guess I'll have to save the guitar pics for Sunday night, but then you critics would just tell me to prune the bushes. |

Location: Campbell River, British Columbia | Secret #1 NEVER water. It's supPOSED to die off in August. My lawn is extremely healthy with few weeds, even though the neighbour is thick with them....and my soil is very poor though I've built it up a little over time with compost and clippings.
Never use herbicides & pesticides. Everyone can play barefoot in My yard. Commercial farms MAY need to use pest & herbicides to remain solvent and produce things that appeal to the modern consumer, but your vanity lawn has no such commercial need.
There's honour in going brown!

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Bring back or archive closed threads? Yes, I'm sure that's the way to go...put them right where everyone can find them when they have nothing to do...Hmmm, yes, I'm sure that's right...wait, I know: lets just bring back all the former contributors under some sort of program and restore all of their privileges... yes, I'm sure that's the right thing to do...and how about letting the Taylor group post freely and discuss how much they hate all things Ovation...we could give them special privilege such as free posting of items for sale and promise never to return them to their former sites...Yes, I'm sure that's the right thing to do....
Or not! |
