The day someone tries to tell me what to do with my own property is the day that someone gets a fat lip.

Enthusiasts are trying to shame their neighbors into joining them with pro-organic lawn signs, Typical lefties. Always acting like tyrants. Sticking their noses in everybody else's business. Time to chop their noses off. Figuratively of course.

Use cow manure on your lawn if you want to go ‘au natural’.
Your down wind neighbors won’t be too happy though...

If I had a lawn in such a neighborhood I would be tempted to hang a sign saying...
"This Lawn Kept Green With DDT"

The man at the end of my block has a FABULOUS lawn--the envy of the entire block! He just swears by 15-15-15 fertilizer once every month. I tried it and it works!
Don't turn us in to anyone, shhhhh!

Yeah, all living creatures welcome. I like creatures. But thousands of Japanese Beetles were consuming my Princeton elm like locusts.
I worked hard to plant that tree. I don't want it to be eaten. I sprayed it down with Triazicide, problem solved. Let them eat some other plant.
And the dogs and children are all healthy.

With Libs, it's always the same crap. They want to do something that they consider to be "good" or "healthy", but then decide that EVERYONE ELSE has to do it as well.
Friggin' nazis.

the Organic lawns here in alabama are real easy to spot -— they are the really nice green lawns dotted with the two foot high mounds of dirt full of fire ants.<P.
meanwhile my lawn is nice and green, weed and bug free.

If I had a greenie living next to me I’d plant thistles and dandylions, add a few ponds to breed moskitoes. Then I’d raise barn swallows to eat those Moskitoes and dive crap on his car, all in the name of going back to natural order of course...

If they have any vegetation over 4 foot tall in the back yard the best advice I can give is honeysuckle and poison ivy. Every tree in my backyard was covered up with that crap and practically dead when I moved in. Thank God for RoundUp! >8)

"Use cow manure on your lawn if you want to go au natural. Your down wind neighbors wont be too happy though... Why not pig crap? smells even better. Easier to apply the liquid stuff too. I'd have way to much fun if a greenie lived next door... My danylions would bloom the biggest, fullest white clouds of seeds, and my thistles would have white billows of cotton like seed pods as well. All edible plants of course. Nobody can deny me my home grown salad...

"This is how it started with smoking, its for the chilren" Until it comes to smoking dope, which is just as bad as smoking cigarettes as it contains all the same toxins as tobacco smoke minus nicotine of course.
Then these same loons march up and down to legalize smoking pot, and giving their kids brain damage from second hand pot smoke. (as well as cancer and the same stuff which is claimed for tobbacco smoke)

I use 2,4D a lot. It’s tried tested and true, plus safe (no matter what greenie lunatics try to tell you) Roundup is part of the arsenal as well,(and completely safe) but 2,4-d leaves the lawn green.
Also it’s better to alternate between the two for broad leaf control to prevent resistance. There are a few 2,4-D variants as well, plus it’s cheaper than roundup. But if you want to kill everything and start a new lawn or keep a garden black for a season, roundup is the way to go.

Please don’t derail this into a marijuana argument.
