Frosty lawn path

Cool white blades.
Sure footing if you
Step on the blocks.
Icy tips of grass.
Lead me too,
The way is sure.

Weeds still dying in late October

Even though the weather is cooling down weed treatments are still worthwhile to apply.
Weed treatments in this day and age in Ontario are not as good as the lawn care customers or the lawn care companies would like them to be. But this is what is available and the best that can be done with permissible products.

Mud Street Seeding

The city has had this median hydro seeded just this week. Hopefully this will grow well and be established by spring. During the spring this median is always a sea of yellow dandelion blooms

Grubs dying from Nematodes

Found these Nematodes on a lawn today. Their legs were still moving for a while. Lawn was treated August 27th. It appears that it takes some time for Nematodes to do their work.

There were other areas on the same lawn where the grubs were a lot healthier.

Nematodes are just not as consistently effective as we would link them to be.

The other problem is that the raccoons and skunks will still dig in the lawn. In the area where the dying grubs were found there was still a bit of digging going on
