Bye bye, luscious green grass (at all my neighbors' house cause my lawn is terrible), I'll miss you... Today marks the end of the watering season the Nampa-Meridian & Boise-Kuna water districts.
You'd think with our moderate climate and perfect environment for gardening, we would have ranked higher, but sadly, we'll need to keep our britches on when we're out by the lawn.
Literally. I've been struggling with the grass at my house and full disclosure: I'm a renter, this is my first time being responsible for grass and I don't have a big yard budget.
The things I got excited about when I was 23 are so different than what I get excited about now... Case in point: I went out of my way to take a picture of this random front lawn to send to my best friend.
If your allergies haven't clued you in, or the blossoms on the trees, or maybe even the grass growing turbo-speed in your yard, here's another sure sign of Spring; The irrigation canals are full.
Why do lawn irrigation systems have to be so darned hard to program? If you'd rather have crispy grass than spend an hour of your life trying to make it work right, you are not alone.
