You can just see the areas where the crab grass grew-- ugly, dry and brown patches. Got my long-handled cultivator and hatched away. Pulled up as much as i could. In a way, it is probably a lost cause....but I thought I would do it anyway. Leaf-rake cleaned up some of the smaller clumps left. Why am I telling you this? Because--every dead clump of crab grass had small new green leaves growing from it. So much for all this warm weather.... Maybe I should use a weed-killer on them? Nice, fresh, new growths....BAM! 77 degrees predicted today!!!! New record! Those early frost-nights a month ago sure messed everything up. Look! |
