Oh so slowly, grass is growing. I have to water 3 times a day, especially now that it's getting warmer. I have to set alarms on my phone, or I will forget and my poor grass will dry up. So far, it's working well. [caption id="attachment_493" align="aligncenter" width="600" caption="Slowly growing grass"] [/caption] All the white specks you see in the dirt are elm seeds. The trees here are going nuts. My allergies haven't been too bad (I'm allergic to elm trees, of course), but I've spent most of my time inside. I will be glad when they are finished with whatever it is trees do to reproduce. I also hope that the grass grows faster than the baby elm trees, and I can mow before the entire yard is taken over by elms. I'm constantly hacking down elms that get established along the foundation of my house. It's damn near impossible to get rid of them... I chop them down, and they just come back. Roundup only seems mildly effective. If anyone has any ideas, feel free to comment. I'm really beginning to hate them.
