RE: Opening Sunday's door

in Weekend Experiences7 months ago

We are in death mode here. Everything is falling off the trees and the grass is finally done growing for the year. I think I might have to cut it one more time. I might not make it before the snow starts to fly though. In the Spring, we have a yellow daffodil that always pops up just past our fence line and that is how I know summer is on the way.

Sort:  

So, the grass grows back after the winter right? Does it just happen or do you need to replant and do something to make it happen, cultivate it?

Oh yeah, it grows back with a vengeance. Plus, this past Spring I decided to have it fertilized and weed treated, so it has been growing thicker and greener than ever. Some people roll their lawns or aerate them, but I just let it do what it naturally does.

Ah ok, I was wondering how it would go after being under snow for a while.

I aerate, topdress and fertilise my lawn...keeps it looking good. It never gets snowed on though.

The grass over here is pretty resilient. I'm guessing it is built to go dormant and then come back in the spring like many other plants. I'd just let it go if I had to re sod every year.
