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

that was really my point. I had had a couple beers last nite when I started this thread if I was a dick to anyone I apologize

We've all been there. I get it though. IMO, a weed is anything you don't want in your yard. I like the uniformity of my St. Aug in my yard even though I'd rather something softer. I think some of the weeds that produce a surface level flower look awesome, but don't make sense when it's a random patch in the middle of my backyard while the rest is green. I think the clover all over sections of my yard cover up the deficiencies in my lawn's health, even if they make it look super green.

I don't think most users in here blast their yard with tons of weed killer regularly. Most of these questions arise when it's growing season and approaching dormancy. It's helpful and easier to ask these questions when the time comes up instead of trying to go back and look at old threads that already answered the question, as odd as that sounds.
