I love the issues you bang the drum for. It gives me a chuckle.

True, but he is too stupid to understand facts and reality.

I hate it when there's like, a handful of blades of grass that are longer than the rest after the lawn is mowed. It's a huge pain in the *** because I have to stand there with my glass of scotch in my hand, out in the sun causing the ice cube to melt as I point and scream at my gardener to fix it with a pair of scissors. It's just the worst, amirite, guys?

It doesn't bother me because I have the maid cut those blades. Watching her bend over in that little outfit really "makes the grass grow".

you can have a nice lawn without chemicals. i use grass seed and top soil and pull dandylions by hand. sure it's not perfect but it's not chemicals either. it's not all black/white.

Cry me a river. So you have one couple in your neighborhood that are smart enough to do the right thing and you're ticked off because it might make your perfectly manicured chemical cesspool yard have a few dandelions.

Maybe you should just do the smart, and right thing and leave your yard alone? Let's see, you might get a few dandelions in your yard because of that one couple's yard... versus that couple might get cancer from your yard.... which is worse?

Get over yourself. Just relax and enjoy life. Who cares about a few weeds.

So your neighbors dog died, the vet did no tests, but said its probably the chemicals in yards that did it. I told this story to my vet and he said that it was the carpet in his house that killed him. Better get that carpet out asap.

Chemicals on lawns will do no harm to your pets assuming you dont sit out there and spray the pet and wait a day to throw the dog back in the yard. Its like using antibiotics in food animals, no harm as long as you dont eat the animal the next day.

Long story short, using chemicals on your yard is fine as long as you don't eat your dog the next day.

save some money, go get some 24d, trimec, and roundup from the co-op. Go get some lawn fertilizer.....Profit.

Trimec is basically 2-4D and banvel IIRC, so just get that. The roundup kills everything, so not sure what your accomplishing there.

The roundup is for the neighbor's lawn so you look even better.

 

[cyclone101]

The roundup kills everything.

Wish we could say the same thing in ag fields.

I think trimec does a better job killing dandilions while I like 24d for other things but youre right. The roundup, I use that under evergreen trees, in sidewalk cracks, mulch beds and against house.

 

[NickTheGreat]

I'm going to Roundup my neighbor's creeping charlie and see if that kills it.

Dogs ******** spots. Don't even get us started on dogs in grocery stores! Ahhhhhhh!

I spray Trimec myself in the fall right after the first freeze. Spread granular crabgrass prevent or with fertilizer in the spring. That's all I do and have a nice weed free lawn. Bonus is one heck of a lot less expensive than a lawn service.
