ehertzfeld 1 Posted September 27, 2005 Cool, I kinda did the same last year, but I just put sprinklers at the edge of the lawn and tied them together with hose. It covered about half of my back yard. I want to put the sprinkler heads on poles so the weeds don't cover them. Elon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gregc 3 Posted September 27, 2005 Well JJ, I think it was rain, at least it reminded me of it. I had to estimate the amount...it was gone before I could catch any of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KVANDY12 0 Posted September 28, 2005 Dry here in greenville S.C. to haven't had rain in at least 5 weeks. I don't water anything. Came off of a 240 acre cow farm in Minn. I have an agreement with god. I'll plow, plant, hoe weeds, and anything that needs to be done to make stuff grow. But it's his job to water. Hope he starts to water soon.

ambler 0 Posted September 29, 2005 Dry up here. I don't water or weed and feed. Try not to encourage it with 5 1/2 acres to mow it can easily get a head of you. This way I can work on the tractors which I don't get to do from April on because I'm mowing, trimming weeding, planting etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
