re: honest question…why do so many of you soak your yard with chemicals?

To each his own, baw! I like the look of a well manicured lawn. While I do use fertilizer and herbicides, it's far from "soaking my yard". Once you get on top of weeds, the occasional spot spray is all that's required to keep your lawn looking 100.
It's all about personal taste. I think a yard chock full of weeds looks horrible....especially, this time of year. The grass isn't growing much, but the weeds are thriving.

Other than pre-emergents, I don’t use any herbicides. I don’t use pesticides either on my lawn because I prefer to let them live, especially earth worms. I just monitor for grubs and armyworms and will treat if necessary. I actually let the armyworms eat last year as an experiment.
The rare weeds I have, I pull by hand. Takes a few years to get to where I am, but it’s so easy to maintain now. I just walk the lawn for 5 minutes before mowing.
