I had talked to a few people and friends in the lawn and garden world of blogging about a Miracle-Gro Lawn food experiment. My plan was to use this product once every two weeks as suggested on the label. I had taken some pictures to hopefully show the progress of my new green lawn.
OK, here’s the deal. I recently finished my MBA program, and have to start paying my student loans bills. Ouch. So in an attempt to re-budget we’re trying to see where we can save money around our household. The lawn and garden portion of our budget is still OK, it’s the utilities section that is mostly effected.
When I started this experiment for lawn food and getting my lawn the greenest it could be, we were having a normal summer. Plenty of rain and fairly moderate temperatures. Then we got a huge dry spell and basically, we just couldn’t afford to water our lawn as much as I would have liked to give this experiment a fair test. So we’re going to try next season. It should be better actually because I can start earlier and get a better result.
OH, and it’s about time to yank out those lawn sweepers!!! I just love these things!
