So I planted a butt-load (amounts may vary from person to person) of grass seed almost two weeks ago. Chris, my bro-in-law, who is completely in the know concerning things of this nature, suggested I rake the dead grass out, rake the soil down deep, seed, rake over the seed, reseed, tamp down, add fertilizer and then some grubs killer - which was the reason I was doing the work in the first place. They were everywhere, those frigging grubs. They ate our lawn! And they’re ugly and alien-like. Die, grubs! Die! Die! DIE! So I did as Chris suggested, and got to the part of the second seeding and started to tamp the entire 15 x 15 foot area with my feet, which proved to be a very effective rain dance as it poured buckets (of water) for the next two days. Did the seed hold? Did it wash away? Did the grubs die? Yes, no, I don’t know yet. I saw some grass sprouts sticking up from the ground like I always imagined hair implants to look like - all straight and thin and new and weird looking. So it seems to have worked, or at least it has kind of started to work. I’ll get a better look at the area this afternoon when I mow the grassy parts of the lawn.

Keep it real…
