Absolutely. Best Summer in a long time for lush irrigation free lawns.

I have not but I've been meaning to. There are DIY kits from Amazon you can order or you can get one done thru UMass https://www.amazon.com/LaMotte-Garden-Kit/dp/B00DBSY6B2/ref=sr_1_3_mod_primary_new?crid=IE3BNEZ0L327&dchild=1&keywords=la+motte+testing+kit&qid=1629134239&sbo=RZvfv%2F%2FHxDF%2BO5021pAnSA%3D%3D&sprefix=la+motte%2Caps%2C192&sr=8-3 https://ag.umass.edu/services/soil-plant-nutrient-testing-laboratory/ordering-information-forms

Just looking for cooler evenings so I can do my front lawn reno.

Tenacity(mesotrione) has a proven track record for pre and post-emergent crabgrass control. It works on other broadleafs weeds as well. Low toxicty. It's sprayed on. There's Barricade(prodiamine) that comes in products like The Andersens and there's Dimension as Scott alluded to that sold under Lesco or Jonathan Green. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=the+andersons&dc&ref=a9_sc_1 https://www.jonathangreen.com/product/season-long-crabgrass-weed-preventer.html https://www.jonathangreen.com/product/crabgrass-preventer-plus-green-up-lawn-fertilizer.html https://www.jonathangreen.com/product/weed-feed-lawn-fertilizer.html Spring Seeding is not ideal in our climate as your competing with weeds at the same time. It's best to wait till now to start the process. The Andersens has a new product that may buck that idea. https://andersonsplantnutrient.com/turf/lawn-landscape/fertwithmeso Starter Fert with mesotrione

Is it upright or more along the ground? Looks like a spurge but tough to tell.

No doubt. I just don’t enjoy having to take a ahower every hour to stay dry.

Pass. Yesterday sucked ass.

Any flowers?

Not sure what Scott is alluding to but I was in my pool from 11-1. Pool temp is in the low 80s, just a bit higher than air temp.

Perfect day.

Lucky if I use cash once a month.

Dews in upper 60s and above suck in the summer.

Dew still hovering around 60F but much more comfortable for sure.

Mosquitos were out all day. Sucked.

My non-sited Davis 83/76

82/73

As opposed to front to front?

Been reading up a lot on this companies product line. Impressed by them. https://andersonsplantnutrient.com/turf/lawn-landscape https://www.amazon.com/stores/TheAndersons/Fertilizers/page/7C366759-37A6-4170-98E6-EF69991D7C88

Grabbed 25# of the Black Beauty Ultra, a bag of Mag-I-cal plus, and a bag of Love Your Soil. All Jonathan Green Products. No starter fertilizer in stock, so I’ll probably get that online.

Temp has rebounded back to 90F after rain. **** this.

Fookin gross out. .32” from downpour ps. Temp 80F with dews in mid 70s

Same here. They worked from 7-11. Didn’t work last couple days either due to illness and the heat.

Yeah, nothing earth shattering. Wake me up when we see upper 90s with dews in the mid 70s.

Heatwave in the books here.

This is what is looks like right now. It's overgrown a bit since I haven't cut it in a couple weeks. You can see the Dig Safe marks on lawn for Fence install. Fence will be going from just to the right of there up against the house straight out 90d to the tree line between my neighbors house. It's give us a screen from the street to the pool in back yard and will create a small lawn behind it where I will be putting my Davis. Not an ideal spot but I don't have anywhere else on my property to put it. I am thinking of putting my anemometer up on the gable end of the new garage with a wireless transmitter to the station.
