Roxana, yes I was...95% I’d say. It still pops up but much more manageable. I go around every couple of months in spring and summer to catch stragglers but it’s almost entirely gone from lawn and easy to pull if it pops up in the bed. it was creeping up from an adjoining ditch and I battled it unsuccessfully for 10 years! Oddly, it seems to only expand in one direction. So now I’ve cut it off from my yard the ditch is even doing better. It seems not to be able to expand backwards where it has already grown and maybe depleted soil. Just my unscientific observation. Lol It also doesn’t like lime so be diligent about liming your lawn as you try to get rid of it. Aerating the lawn annually also helps improve drainage. good luck!

Wow ! Love your seedling .......and that group shot .......does it ever take your breath away when you stand back and look and say ...." I cant believe I am so lucky to be surrounded by so many wonderful blooms" . I often just stop and stand and look around my gardens in awe. All I do is plant and weed. Mother Nature does the rest . She is an awesome artist.

looks like hail damage .. whether you deny it or not ... note its the oldest leaves ... meaning this happened when only those leaves were unfurled ... the smaller one.. looks like it was stepped on.. when in late pip stage.. just before it unfurled.. anyone ever mention to you.. to stay out of your garden in late inter.. lol ... the only alternative this early int eh year.. in your zone.. might be cutworm ... it really is too cold and early for slugs.. WHEN THIS DAMAGE OCCURRED ... maybe a month ago ... damage doesnt brown fast.. when its just freakin cold out there.. so you dont notice it .... ken
