I prefer gin. The more gin I drink the better my lawn looks.
Are you series?
SO QUIT MOWING THE GRASS SO SHORT. idiots.
And one other thing...
Zoysia.
There’s a bar joke in there somewhere, I know .... LOL
I don’t have an M1 or a torino. But I do have an old green car and a mauser!
It works. Put it in a hand held pump sprayer and spray the spots. Get on them early though. The longer you let it go the harder it is to get rid of.

You gotta see this.
What's he smoking? The author has obviously never been to Texas or the South in August, comparable to spending a month in the fires of hell. He's right though, the weeds and the grass they grow in will die if you just let the sun do its thing.
Thanks
ROTFLMAO. I’m umm, borrowing that.
ping Grass Care?
My North Tx St. Augustine grass does well in spring and early summer but the scorching heat can turn it brown by mid August—even with watering it regularly and the clay soil is awful when it dries out some. Constant battle in the summer plus protecting the home foundations from shifting due to dry clay soils. Soaker hoses a definite item to have and keep the soil moist to prevent cracking.
I bought one of the last 2cycle lawnboys in 2005 I love using it. I dont have great grass but it is damn sight better than when i got here 10 years ago. I keep on getting deployments to properly treat my lawn before spring. I had my clover issue almost licked, but it has came back.
“Drink enough gin so you wont care how your lawn looks.”
LOL, I thought that was the secret too!
Our lawn is dreadful (we just bought our house last august, hey, it was actually the first day of spring when we bought it!). We are in an area close to the beach, so the soil is sandy, there a very few good lawns around here.
I’ve told hubby the lawn is a job for next year, or maybe even the year after that!
But I did learn something about weeding today, the already sprayed dead weeds pulled up a lot easier after last night’s big rain. So in the future I’ll hose them down before pulling them up.
I’m a city girl moved to the suburbs, so this is all very new to me.
