Lesley Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 It is raining on my grass seed I nearly killed myself onTuesday, scattering grass seed all over one of the large chicken runs which was completely bald - and I mean roots as well We have also levelled part of the area we laughingly call 'the Lawn' - I sowed grass seed before and had to keep watering it, but it never took well and was very patchy. I scattered more grass seed there as well. I was so hot and bothered by the time I'd finished .... but now it has been raining since yesterday afternoon - one less job to do ....and, for once, the forecasts were right!

SarahJo Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Hope it sprouts into nice new grass soon Lesley, the rain was battering down here at 5am this morning . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 It might be patchy again Lesley I sowed some grass seed before a heavy downpour and the rain washed it all into little puddles where it sprouted quite nicely and very lush, but patchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Hope you get a lush green lawn Lesley! We had to go out and buy a lawnmower for the garden here, as the chickens kept the grass under control in the old house! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Good old rain on the allotment, that's one less job for me to do too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
