[quote]saw your post on TLF. Funny guys...
It seems like TARR is problematic where soil is very high in ph??
Good luck![/quote]
That was me lol. I'm from Nola so always grew up with St Augustine and no one ever did anything to it except cut it, so living up here in Plano is quite challenging...

Does Bermuda get Take All Root Rot?
Posted by SirSaintly on 4/18/24 at 7:57 pm

Seemed the way to go after seeing multiple threads here about Bermuda and how hard it is to kill and how it's a much better grass for NTX than St Augustine, but I just read in Neil Sperry's weekly newsletter that Bermuda in N TX is sho...

re: Paging Ronk: what's the right process to sodding new lawn in DFW clay soil?
Posted by SirSaintly on 4/3/24 at 11:43 am
To get around the too much labor for one person problem, I saw someone say they were thinking about doing a pallet a weekend.
So I could save delivery fee by picking up one pallet, which will fit in my f150. Take my time laying the 450 sq ft on a Saturday and concentrate my watering efforts to ...

I killed my yard and am having soil brought in to fill in some spots. Do I need to till it before putting down new grass? This Old House says yes.

I absolutely love my Amazon wishlist I send to my mother-in-law, sister-in-law etc. They insist on doing Christmas presents for everyone(my family only does gifts for the kids in the family + significant others).
Before I started doing a wishlist, I'd get $100-$150 worth of crap from my mother ...

If you aren't willing to buy an Apple watch, just don't buy him a watch. He doesn't want a watch. He wants an Aople device to wear on his wrist. Just like all of his friends have.

re: Does your non-married significant other split living expenses 50/50 with you?
Posted by SirSaintly on 12/4/23 at 5:50 pm
When my GF moved into the house I owned, I didn't make her pay part of the mortgage. I figured I had to pay it regardless as it was my house. She did contribute towards bills, did the cleaning, laundry, cooking etc. It was equitable imo. We are now married and own our home 50/50. We have a joint ...
