Re: Lawn care: Fertilizer, lime, and maintenance

My lawn care routine? I mow it if I have to. Otherwise it gets nothing. I prefer the "prairie" method. This summer, all my neighbors have nothing to show but dead grass. My native weeds are as green as can be.

Your neighbors grass is not dead. It is dormant, a natural reaction to drought and heat. Come fall when the temps drop and you get some rain, their lawns will look great again.

My entire lawn was turning brown and quite ugly during the drought like conditions we had in early summer. Then we got rain, and it's back to beautiful.

Then you shouldn't mow it at all!

I wouldn't have a lawn that couldn't take care of itself.

After spending untold thousands of dollars and hours of hard work I've adopted this also. It's much better and a hell of a lot cheaper. Weeds? Who cares, Green is Good

It's all weeds in the end. Grass is just considered a 'desirable' weed.

It's a pain in the ass to me. Every year my garden gets larger. One day I hope to not have a lawn to mow anymore.

Now you have to join the George Patton School of Lawnmowing -"If it won't break the mower, mow it."
