Parsley 4,850 Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 Backyard is a work in progress with way more clover but we have a major project in the months ahead so a lot will get torn up and removed with a paver patio/fire pit going in. Notice the difference at the back of my property where the open space is. No watering or fert. happening back there. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like they will finish in about 2 weeks, so lots of work to do in the spring. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

colonel_kurtz 2,868 Posted October 9 Author Report Share Posted October 9 Shark River in Neptune City, NJ yesterday, added one to our foursome for a hole, fox literally followed a few feet behind us for the entire hole Pine Barrens in Jackson, NJ today, awesome course & quite a workout from the 6700 yd blue tees in the wind, relative to my skill level was doing pretty well thru 10 holes then the proverbial doo doo hit the fan. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eastonwx 734 Posted October 10 Report Share Posted October 10 Is there still time to get in some grass seeding? This upcoming rain looks not too heavy to wash seed away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PRINCETON ANGLER 76 Posted October 10 Report Share Posted October 10 I’ve put down seed this late and been OK. Probably depends on when we get our first hard frost/freeze. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably can seed it up till Feb 2021 with the warm winter on the way. 😆 You'll be fine, probably a week or two left. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
susqushawn 2,029 Posted October 13 Report Share Posted October 13 My boys and I competed in the Philadelphia Disc Golf open this past weekend. All three of us "cashed" and took home some prizes. So cool to share a new sport with the juniors. Looking forward to playing Manufacturers CC next week for a long awaited round of regular golf since my golf ball to the face hospital incident this past May. All healed and ready to tear it up 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Parsley 4,850 Posted October 16 Report Share Posted October 16 Couldn’t be happier with this year’s aerate and overseed. The weather the past 4 weeks has been perfect for it. (Just had to water a lot the first 10 or so days). Mowing every 3 days now. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have a lot of clover and some invasives to get rid of, but at least now if I kill that off I'll have some grass left behind and not just a barren weed free pile of dirt. Sunday I put down a few last handfuls of seed in the areas that didn't take as well with overseeding. I hope we have decent warmth next week so that new seed can germinate too. I'm looking forward to how it returns in the spring. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm looking forward to how it returns in the spring. Yeah, I'm fighting clover as well. I sprayed it a few times weeks before the overseed but now I'll just wait til spring to readdress the issue as it takes multiple applications to really knock it out. Weather is looking good next week too (mild, limited rain) so yards should continue to thrive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It’s hard to control as it comes from neighbors lawns or the lawnmower spreads it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I use it on my yard and it smokes clover 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can hit clover from spring to fall, needs to be growing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
