Shady Grass
Original Message   May 24, 2005 6:34 pm
I'm looking for the best & toughest grass for use in a no sun zone of my yard. The area gets a lot of traffic, so it has to be a durable grass.

I appreciate all types that meet my needs, but also if a particular brand is better than the competition.

Before coming back to Abby's recently I posted this request for the best grass to grow throughout the web. Needless to say most respondents advised using the kind of grass you smoke, not mow.

It is hard enough to remember my opinions, without also remembering my reasons for them!

Hi...

Organic lawn / plant food / most anything growing... I use powdered seaweed mixed w/ water and sprayed on w/ a hand held pump sprayer... fine stuff ! Inexpensive for the area covered and results... also shred and compost yard debris and non-meat food waste... and use it... mostly use both on the organic veggie garden and yard plantings...

Zoisa grass.. the area I'm doing is ~~ 15 x 35'... a shady slope that I drive the truck and tractor on sometimes... kills regular grass... soil washes into driveway... I dunno... brown soil ? ...or brown spreading Zoiasa ?    ...no wonder why my girlfriend made a face when she saw the Zoisa planted...! ...looks like the hair club for men ! LOL...

More Zoisa dreams tonight ! ... Phewww....

Dave...

Thanks for the tips and links guys. I was thinking maybe I could set my wife in a lawn chair in my tractor cart with a half keg, and let her go at it while I pull her around.  LOL
