How fast can grass grow?
« on: August 20, 2009, 04:21:57 AM »
Walked out this morning and took a good look at my front lawn. Unless my brain is failing, it grew about 3" last night.  I have one arm in a sling, and I think the grass is purposely giving me a hard time and growing faster.  I've also noted we have a lot more garbage since my surgery.  Odd ain't it?

Rode out to the deer lease the other day, and the fella's have done a good job.  We have food plots that are over 5 acres.  The owner hunts birds in season here, and plants for them, and we have planted for deer.  Over 500 acres, and more than 200 under cultivation.  Plenty of deer.  The doc says I can't shoot this season.  Guess he never saw a revolver before.  I'll show him.

When they come for your guns, give them the ammo first.

You are right about the grass. We got a little rain this week and the grass took off like crazy. It seems like it always needs cutting.

Kudzu is some bad stuff. It will take over an area fast if not taken care of.
