    I thought mowing the sticker would lead to seeding the new sticker?!?

      Birds yes, rabbits don't really eat the seeds. We've never had them kill plants, but probably because my neighbors fills them with carrots and other stuff.

        You must have those seedless GMO rabbits. My yard has all sorts of herbs and weed spread from the massive heard of rabbits we get. Rabbits being responsible for seed dispersion is a researched and known factor so Im not just making shit up.

          I have never heard this, but it makes sense now. I have tons of rabbits, and bastard chipmunks which I'm sure they do this too. Rabbits I can get rid of, chipmunks are hard to get rid of and there's so many.

            Weather hasn't been conducive to regular mowing, but I've just about got the creeping bent grass trained back down to the right length. Also, the perennial rye seed we put down has really started coming in.

              That looks great!

              My grass is slowly coming back, and its great in some areas and not so great in others. I also have a bunch of different types of weeds. I bought some of this, and so far its been great. It does not kill grass, but it's killed a lot of many different weeds i have. Next step is overseeding, and peet moss over that.

                What kind of grass are you overseeding?

                      • I'm trying to get rid of some broad leaf weeds that grow in a single patch like crab grass. Leaf grow tall fast. I've started using the weed killer that connect to water hose as s non concentration by pouring in a spray bottle to hand spray. Its slowly killing them but not good enough. So I'm going to attempt to manually cut them at ground level then spray again. Anyone have idea on good spray for broad leaf weeds?

                          Look on the past page, I posted a concentrate that I use for those specific type of weeds. Because it’s a concentrate though you have to mix with water and the directions aren’t that great so you have to do some online research. I basically eyed 6 teaspoons per gallon. Seemed to work well. Doesn’t kill anything but the weeds.
