Did the morning watering. It’s supposed to be cooler today and it might even rain a bit. I’m hoping to be able to mow this evening.
Month: May 2009
Watering
Was out early this morning and took care of the watering–20 minutes per side. There are still lots of plugs not worked back in to the soil from the aeration. The yard needs a mow badly but I don’t want to lose the plugs so I’m putting it off as long as I can. Probably sometime before Friday though.
Rain
Ahhh… summer rain… though not quite summer. It was really hot today and then it rained this evening and then it cooled off considerably. Probably didn’t rain enough, however, to skip the morning watering.
Watering
I was up early and did the morning watering–20 minutes per side–before the sun came up. It’s supposed to be a hot day today.
Watering
It’s supposed to be warm today (mid 80s) so I decided to do a bit longer than normal watering–30 per side. I’m thinking I’m going to see about some products to get the parts of the yard that aren’t currently growing up and running. We’ll see if that gels. I also need to mow but I think I’m going to wait for this evening.
Rain
I wasn’t able to water yesterday morning because I had to leave so early. Fortunately it rained yesterday evening and in to this morning. Thanks mother nature.
Watering
Dana needs to leave early again this morning so watering is again 15 minutes per part. I had heard there was a chance of rain over night but there was no sign of any moisture this morning. Oh well.
Watering
It’s supposed to be a touch cooler than yesterday but still sunny and warm. Did the morning watering as soon as I woke up. Because Dana needs to leave earlier than normal I compressed the timing of the watering to 15 minutes per part.
Watering
It’s supposed to be in the mid 80s today. When I woke up I didn’t find any signs of overnight rain. I immediately put out the sprinkler for the usual morning watering. 20 minutes per section.
Watering
When I came home this evening it was obvious that Mile Hi had returned. They were supposed to come back and do another round of overseeding. Instead, it appears they did another round of everything. I don’t know if they spread seed but I don’t really care at this point. Either they did or they didn’t. Either something grows or it doesn’t. Just in case what they did was helpful, Dana did some watering. I may go out there at some point soon and do a bit of raking and put down my own seed (especially in the really bald spots. I’ve still got some seed left from last year’s seeding. It’s supposed to possibly rain over night tonight. One can only hope.
