Green grass!

[dyork]

I want green grass! What do I put on it to make it green?

[reader]

Water, sunlight, fertilizer, and (occasionally) a mower.

"What do I put on it to make it green? "

That depends...what color is it now? If it's yellow, add blue. If it's blue...add yellow. If it's anything else, the procedures required and tools needed get rather complicated and expensive. It would be cheaper to install some astroturf and let it go at that. You're welcome.

Paint?

:p

But seriously, can you post what the condition of your grass is now, other than us guessing it ISN'T green?

Good luck,

Oooops. That's what I forgot to add . . . "You're welcome"

if you really want to look after your soil organic fertilisers or at least low salt fertilisers. High salt fertilisers like potassium chloride (potash), ammonium nitrate, urea, potassium nitrate and ammonium sulphate are not recommended by organic gardeners as doing the soil and its mircobiology any favours.

Does anyone from webtv offer good advice?

[Steveo]

If you're going to attempt to do all of that, you might as well call the

-local- turf specialist and get a free estimate. (local guy not franchise)

It's really not much more money than if you do it yourself..if you use good product when you diy..and the re-treats are free for the most part.

YMMV

Why not just killscore them?

!delete Message-ID webtv

^works here just fine.

[Steveo]

Or people could not respond unless they're sure about their advice. Kill-filter won't eliminate that bad advice to someone trying to do the right thing with their little piece of the earth.

This group is -full- of bad advice.

[Dan]

Until any advice that is posted here is confirmed by steveo and trader, it's bad advice to me. YMMV

[Steveo]

That may be extreme, Dan. :)

There is a bunch of good ideas and advice here, but just like most NG's there's a lot more bad than good. I hope everyone takes most of it like a grain of salt.

[Eggs Zachtly]

Or how they word it. =)

Yes, I agree somewhat that a group such as ahlg should probably have an exception to my rule.

That being said, neither webtv nor G2 can be considered the sole sources of bad advice in this group. But G2 is definately a portal for meaningless trolls, spams, and other useless posts. Not to mention the formatting issues wreak havoc with long-time USENET users. As do the sheer amount of new users that don't bother to lurk a bit, looking for their answers, and prefer to be spoonfed, all because Google made it "easier" for them to access an information protocol that's older than (and worked better/safer than) "www". Few new users seem to have patience in this day and age of "i want it NOW". Rather than learn how it works, they just want to dive right in and move on.

Picking up DejaNews' archiving was a good thing; creating a web portal to USENET was not. I'll most likely keep a global kill on G2 posts

webtv... ahh that's another matter all-together. That's gotta just suck, heh. There can't possibly be *that* many users that post here via webtv, can there?

True. I hope that my few posts aren't considered as such. Other than one mis-worded post, and a differing of opinion on the same issue, I don't think I've said anything that could be construed as "bad advice". *shrug* At the same time, I consider this group to also be -full- of good advice. It's sorting it all out that gets tricky. Same as any other ng, there.
