September 23, 200421 yr http://www.cnn.com/2004/WEATHER/09/23/stor...n.ap/index.html Now Tropical Storm Ivan, and it is threatening Texas and Louisiana.
September 23, 200421 yr Yea, we are supposed to get some rain from Ivan. Isn't that nice? I don't have to water my grass then. We have had two days of rain for the past two months.

September 23, 200421 yr It's been terribly dry in Chicago the last month or so. Can someone send some rain this way?
September 23, 200421 yr Speaking of your grass... how is the new place going? Do you have grass yet? We have (since we closed) grass in the front yard but not the back. I need to get some down. Hell, ideally I should do it before we get all this rain. But $$ is an issue - it costs a lot to sod an entire backyard, even on a postage stamp lot.

Do you have to worry about winter hardiness way up north?
September 23, 200421 yr Ivan is one crazy beast. I thought he went up to New York and if he did, how did he get back down south? Anyways that's just crazy.
September 23, 200421 yr Ivan is one crazy beast. I thought he went up to New York and if he did, how did he get back down south? Anyways that's just crazy. When the storm hit land, it broke in two pieces, one went north and the other went south and then east and then back west.

Is it backlash/altered weather patterns due to the storm? EDIT: nevermind, just read the link lol Edited September 23, 200421 yr by Queen Prawn
September 23, 200421 yr what are you planning on putting down? Common carpet grass or something more exotic? Do you have to worry about winter hardiness way up north? Bermuda grass. They tell us to have all of it planted by the end of Sept. 30 because otherwise the roots can't take hold good enough before a potential frost, the earliest would be Nov 15thish and that would be really early.
September 23, 200421 yr Oh, did you know grubbs suck? Those little bastards have torn up most of our backyard. GRRRRRRR!
September 23, 200421 yr Grubbs - those get burnt up in the Texas sun, so we don't have any of those. Just fire ants. Those bastards suck ass.

I have 429 bermuda in my backyard. The previous owner was the golf pro at a local country club and grabbed a bag of the same seed the fairways were seeded with. I haven't maintained it to the same standards so I do not have the super tight smooth surface. My front is a drought resistent St. Augustine that I love. Very green and takes almost zero water.
