Ontopic Springtime Thread 2015

I would have loved to start out garden this year, but I don't think I can handle the work this year.

 

[Petunia]

I plan on super gardening this summer. I can't wait

 

[Valve1138]

We bought some lettuce seeds and we'll plant peas pretty soon. Other than that I don't anticipate planting much else this year.

 

[Amstel]

I want to do spinach.

 

[APRIL]

I just want to get our yard pretty, let alone be meticulous with a garden. Sigh.

 

[Mean Mr. Mustard]

Sometime towards the middle of the month Ill start prepping the actual garden area

 

[Domon]

I want to do spinach.

[Mr. Argumentor]

Not sure if I mentioned it, but I spread out some Weed N Feed on my yard the other day while I was planting some new peppers and 'maters.

Half the lawn is dead now because it was all weeds.

 

[Domon]

if soil temps are above 40, its good to go in. 45 is better, but if its not too soggy 40 will be fine.

I dont much like herbicides, and "green is green" for the most part for me, whether its weeds or grass, but i am curious.

We've tried that with little success. Our soil sucks.

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

I don't like weeds. You have a couple acres of lawn to deal with, doesn't really make sense for you to go through all that trouble, but with the postage stamp I have... meh

I might buy some seeds in the next month when I'm sure that the cold is gone.

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

Mine does as well in some spots, but it's not horrible. The front yard is a lot better soil than the back, that's for sure.

That's been how I feel too. I once cared about having a beautiful lawn, but after I learned about all the chemicals to get it there... I'm Meh about it.

We do have dirt patches I need to fill up with something green. Tried planting clover, but it didn't take well either.

 

[fly]

The lawn looks way better than it did like 5 years ago. Our soil is slowly getting better. We now have a sprinkler system and I've been using the proper fertilizer for the past couple years. Unless you lay down sod, it takes time. However, I forgot to put down a pre-emergent this year. Whoops.

the part that sucks is that you can't seed for at least 4 weeks because that 'weed' part prevents new germination.

 

[Valve1138]

Just put down astro turf!
