The moment I had been working so hard for all these weeks.
BEFORE

AFTER

I have more pics (here) if you’re so inclined to look. :)
We’ve been dumping so much water on our lawn I’m afraid we alone will be the cause of the next drought in this city. 2 zones feed the back and I let the sprinklers run about 4 hours each side per day total.. :) as long as the grass is happy, i’m happy.
In other news, I spent the last 2 days finding more bugs in the new gallery2. yay. they love it when I help find bugs. and I love feeling helpful. I just wish there were more themes and layouts available so I could change the default to something I really liked.
I’m uploading more pics to the gallery this evening.

Reply to geekychick1yeah, I assimilated him into the verio-ville after we met. lol.
thanks, it is a lot of ground. I think if we had to do it over we’d rather have gotten a bigger house and a smaller yard.

Reply to Tania (digsite)Wow, nice before and after pictures!
Just a heads up. I water like a retard for a month when I got my new grass and last month’s water bill was 211.51. So if you are watering on city water I would suggest you dig a well. :) My house’s original sprinkler system was well fed and I’m thinking of converting it back to well water. The grass could care less where the water is coming from and it’ll be cheaper and it’ll continue looking great.
So did you lay your own grass? or did they lay it for you?
Reply to phoenixcoffeewe did it all ourselves. I think I did most of the work since it was kinda my project.
the sprinklers draw from a well, so a large water bill isn’t a concern. I HAD been wondering what the electric bill is going to look like but it always looks like shit anyway. average bill for us is about $230.
