However, the spraying is a different issue. You need a good 1/2 day dry after applying, or it will just get diluted down and also you need it to be relatively calm, any wind and you could wipe out a flower border with drift. So if this has already been a problem for me, someone who lives in the 'soft' SE, I can't imagine what a nightmare it must be the further north and west you are. Seems like a lot of fuss over a patch of grass. If it wasn't for the thick moss our "lawn" would be bare earth during the winter after the grass has died back and the wind blows it away. During the summer various grasses come through at different times, seems to be some form of broad leaved rye that is doing well ATM. Then there is bit of clover, creeping buttercup, a few daisys and a few other flowering plants. All adds to the variety. B-) -- Cheers Dave. Nr Garrigill, Cumbria. 421m ASL. |

All I do to my grass is cut it every two weeks or so from April to October. Will -- |
