Field Report

On my last trip up here, one of the many things we did was to try and plant grass in some of the bare spots in the middle field. Lisa pointed out to me yesterday that most of the planted areas have come up tolerably well, although we clearly didn't have enough grass seed. Unfortunately, we forgot to save the seed sack, so we can't be sure of buying the exact same type of seed when she sets us to planting more areas. The new grass is very nice-looking, and has already grown high enough to need trimming.

If you let it continue to grow until it seeds, then you don't need to worry too much about buying more seed. When Mom was starting the yard at the farm, that's what she did for a couple of years. Hold off on mowing until it had gone to seed, then mowed. Made each successive year more bountiful.
