I decided to take on a project this spring after much frustration. I seed in spring and fall and water, water, water and fertilize. Every spring it looks like the photo below. (Bill, do you now understand why I'm always lusting after your grass ) So I decided all the grass and weeds are coming out. I went to my mother's house to get my rototiller. Came home, pulled the cord and the entire engine lifted off the machine. Oh krapola! I spent 8 hours on hands and knees pulling out unwanted grass and stuff. Got about 20 feet done with only 80 or so to go. I have about 20 assorted shrubs waiting to get planted in the new shrub garden. I plan on having this done in two weeks. Any bets??
