Hey all:
I know this is so not connected to woodworking (other than the fact that lawns sometimes have trees...), but I figured I'd give it a shot.
I DAGS for groups related to lawn care, but I can't seem to find anything relevant. Does anyone know if there is such a group out there, and I maybe just missed it? Specifically, I've got some problems with grass that won't grow, and a lot of weed issues--looking to bounce some questions off experts.
Thanks for any help you can give me...
Jim
I find it's easier to search the groups using OE's tools, rather than DAGS.
You might try alt.home.lawn.garden, assuming your news server has it.

see alt.home.repair
DAGS for many old threads.
There are discussion forums on both the Scotts' and Ortho web sites:
alt.landscape
Assuming you're in the USA, have you tried your local Cooperative Extension service office?

based strictly on the newsgroup names -- i have never been in either group -- try:
alt.landscape alt.home.lawn.garden
alt.gardens

Grass that won't grow? How about the following:
1) not enough sun. 2) not enough fertilizer 3) not enough water 4) someone is mowing your lawn when you aren't lookingdave

The first being the most likely. Maybe trying another variety of grass, but rec.gardens is the newsgroup of choice.
Lawn care depends on your location and type of grass. I've got the best lawn in the neighborhood and my neighbor started paying me $200 a month to "do whatever I do to my lawn to his lawn." After 5 months, his lawn looks much better, but not quite there yet. I fertilize, test pH, mow high and often, overseed, spot treat weeds, and use crab-grass prevention applications. You have to know what to do, how much and when.
