I just raised the canopy on three trees. They were getting difficult to mow around. I decided to use my $20 Harbor Freight reciprocating saw with a limb/brush/wet wood blade. Holy crap was that quick and easy. Highly recommend.

Has anyone tried using a mosquito bucket for mosquito control? I've been thinking about making one.

we need rain
I could spend a fortune watering this year. I have a lot of burned areas. It is sad. It will come back, but I am not going to spend 1000 a month to water. I am also going to put roundup on the thick blades of grass in the yard. I have tried to do it with a paint brush or roller. It works so so. Next will be rubber glove and a rag. |

Finally built a raised garden this year (had to, as our Husky will eat everything if we don't protect it with a fence). Sicily tomatoes, oregano, and basil for home made caprese salad FTW!!!!
Jalapeno and habanero later this year for hot af salsa. Word. |

Lewdog's personal landscaping travels. I could easily plant dozen of plants in your yard and run microbubblers to them in a day. I don't hand water a single thing in my yard. We can make this happen! |

If it’s crabgrass there are two other methods that are much easier than spot application of roundup.
You can use a pre emergent crabgrass preventer in the spring. You need to know that no seeds will sprout once this is activated by rain, so you can not oversees that spring. The other option is they sell a chemical that will only target annual grasses like crabgrass. They sell it in a hose-end attached bottle, but I recommend buying concentrate and mix it a little stronger than the label recommends. Throw it in a pump up sprayer and go to town. |

Since this is the "gardening" thread too....does anyone have any prevention ideas for squash vine borer bugs? They killed my fall squash planting last year, I'm putting a fall crop in pretty soon and I'd be open to any suggestions.
