I sprayed my Bermuda grass with Ortho "weed" killer this weekend, as summer weeds have overtaken my struggling Bermuda grass. I doubt I'll have much green left in a week or so when the weeds die off, but the Bermuda is supposed to grow back after an inital yellowing. I think a putting green would look nice there, maybe as part of a par 2 course.

I'd like to see something GREEN - a new color experience. After 40-some years in
Tucson, the word "mowing" disappeared from my vocabulary.:-)

Sprayed 3 gallons of 2-4D at 2 pints/acre mixed in a 10 gallon/acre water adjustment Saturday around the house lot. Need to do fence rows next and some of the pasture, been so windy that I couldn't spray without drift, now I need the higher rates to get the job done.

As far as I'm concerned, green paint would work just fine..... yard care has never been something I particularly liked.... (in other words, I would like to bring the guy who invented this lawn stuff back to life and his punishment would be to cut my lawn forever)

When I was in Yuma demoing a spreader truck, I kept the spreader in a truck lot. The owner had about a quarter of an acre of covered back yard that he had turned into a wetter climate. He had rain that he could adjust, thunder and lighting flashes rigged up. From a wetter climate and created some of his youth at his home, kind of neat. I was there in August and September for lettuce planting, never needed my coat.

It's a sickness

Me too Dave, but now I'm no longer in Minnesota, and I rent. So twice a week it's mow ,blow , and go by my gardener Jose. You must be part farmer like me.:-)

I suspect I could find plenty of folks who would be ecstatic if you cut our lawns for us. You guys get to do something you enjoy and we could avoid doing something we detest..... sounds like win win to me!:-P

what you DO need in Yuma in August - September is a plane ticket somewhere cooler!
