Default Speaking Of Lawns

When I first bought my island camp, the lot of land was mostly sand and was just washing away into the lake during every rainstorm of high water wake days.

The first thing I did was buy a bag of the cheapest grass seed at Sam’s club and just threw it out over the sand hoping for the best. Well lo and behold if that grass didn’t grow and grow dam well without fertilizer or anything and that was 16 years ago!

To this day that grass or whatever you want you want to call it (it’s green) has held up and held up well and has never seen an ounce of fertilizer or any chemicals whatsoever! I only water it. It has also kept my land from washing away into the lake!

My point is grass does not need to be fertilized to serve its purpose. Yeah mine won’t win any landscape contest but we love it and it has held up amazingly well!
