I'm already watering my acre. Not to the point that my nieghbors are, but I am watering it. The tech did say twice a week 15 minutes a zone. I'm doing 3 times a week 10 minutes a zone, but that will probably get dialed back.

Originally posted by bird_dog0347 View PostDepends, if you have a bunch of weeds then at least the first year for sure. If it's already a clean yard then you might be able to cut that down some.Originally posted by black2002ls View PostHow much are you guys paying? What is your lot size? I'm on 1/3 acre. I have fought the weeds for 2.5 years. I have made drastic improvements, but damn its getting old.

Originally posted by mustang1200 View PostGood to know.
I priced the weed/feed, fertilizer and pre - emergent and by doing it myself I was only saving $15 per treatment. Seems like a no brainer.
The real question is do you need 7 or 8 treatments a year like they recommend.

I'm considering doing this, but it's for an acre of yard.

I just spread some grub worm killer down at the advice of a neighbor, but from what I've read it won't work. I think there are some sonar devices you can buy but I know nothing about them..yet.

Originally posted by 8mpg View PostWell, see if anyone has ideas on this one. I laid sod in this area last year and its all dead this year and the yard has become very bumpy. My dad was thinking moles are tunneling. The high spots can be knocked back down with stepping on them. The ground is very soft. The sod was beautiful last year

I'm irritated that my lawn won't just be beautiful on its own.
Anyone try that scotts bald spot remover?
