    I've always waited until late September. Right now, the heat is literally cooking my lawn. But I agree with 9er about irrigating. Once you aerate, seed, and fertilize, you've GOT to water the lawn.

    What do you guys do in regards to lime? I used to lime once to twice a year (8 bags). My neighbor swore by it. I never saw a difference. I haven't done it for a year, but just FEEL like I should do it this year.

    Do you live in Meck county? We're on water restriction, so not a good time to seed a lawn.

    Which is why having just killed all my 'grass' last week kinda sucks. I'm hoping the restrictions get lifted in the next few weeks.

    Not just Meck county. We are on a 2 day a week limit watering and only for a limited time. Fuck the grass I am just worrying about plants at this point. Azalea's have a real shallow root base and I am losing the battle

    I don't. If I didn't have weeds, I wouldn't have a lawn, just a half acre of dirt. actually, I keep the front nice, but what's the sense in doing the same for the back yard when all I use it for is for the kids to play or for me to walk across to get to the burn pit and the cooler of beer I keep next to it.

    It's crazy. Crazy. you fuckers need to get your priorities straightened right the fuck out. especially you meat.

    My backyard didn't even have weeds. Just dirt, sticks, and dog shit. Had to clean it up to let the toddlers toddle the fuck back there.

    cool. make sure you put a burn pit back there. dog shit, when dried and seasoned, makes good kindling, as does bird and rodent skeletons that the cats might leave behind. will you be getting the boys four-wheelers and/or motorcycles? your yard looks big enough to accomodate a small course complete with jumps and mud holes.

    tear that shed down and put up a trapeze and safety net. you'll be amazed what a trapeze can do for your sex life. a respectable woman would never come out and ask for a trapeze, but pretty much every one secretly longs to have one set up in the backyard.

    would a pespectable woman hang from a trapeze, while running the sprinklers and giving head to half the neighbor hood (in the front yard yard, no less)?
