Eastpenna,

Good color! It is really looking good.

Looking great eastpenna!

That is going to be one fine-looking lawn! By Day 14, I had a thin scree of seedlings, barely enough to call color, which then went nuts over the next seven days.

You look like you're ahead of where I was and should have a much improved stand by the weekend.

Thank's Guys!!

I know that I am certainly getting my share of weeds!! Starting to think I should have used the starter with halts, even though they say that is more for spring planting. I realize that some of them will die in the winter, but were not in winter, and they are really starting to get on my nerves!

Hey turf toes, we can trade front lawns if you like..LOL

eastpenna,

No thanks! But trust me, you'll like your yard a lot next year. (You'll LOVE it in two years time)

You'll START to get an idea of how dark it will be this time next year. I have very bad soil here and the color was good but not super impressive in the first year. This past spring (The lawn's second) was when it really stared to show its true color.

It gets much more dense in the 2nd year too.

Just make sure to keep it fed and watered correctly.

Looking good for 14 days...

But, be VERY careful with those "re-bars" you placed on the perimeter of your lawn. They can potencially injure somebody. Buy some tennis balls and place them on top for safety. I thought about doing the same thing last year, but really thought better of it and I ended up installing some orange irrigation flags along with the 'do not cross' tape. It looked terrible, but it did the job. Three weeks later they were removed.

Anyway, keep up the good work.
