15. "I love grass & understand most of that but" In response to In response to 14
with almost an acre, chickens that scratch any damn thing when we let them out of the coop (they've torn up entire sections of lawn in an afternoon), and a priority on veggies and ornamentals rather than grass... the long game with the lawn isn't for me. Not worth the work compared to the other two... I'm fine cutting it every two weeks, longer if I can let it go, and that's that. Plus my grassy area keeps shrinking on purpose - between landscaped beds, garden beds, shed, playset, etc., I've probably cut my grass area by 1/3 over the past ten years. Working on another 100' of veggie garden boxes right now, and hoping later this spring to expand the landscaping in my front to take up about 20% or more of the remaining front yard.
