    Now you are doing container gardening with Lawn Plugs to test your Super Fertilizer in Beach Sand... This is kinda like watching the people on food stamps in the red light district to see if they grow up healthy on their diet of Ramon noodles and dope.

    I finished my lawn refurb today only to find my LCN journal was delivered and then if the day couldn’t get any better I get two LCN videos in one day!!! I celebrated by making a Black and Tan with Southern Tier Pumpking and Warlock, the only way to finish such an epic day! BTW I am so glad you didn’t totally deplete your foot rest bag of Milo!

    Al, just out of complete interest, I live in the UK so I guess more like what you my American cousin would class as cool season turf type... what would happen if I got some St Aug plugs from you and planted over here. Would it completely just die due to if being too cold 10c to -5c over the winter it would it somehow evolve and adapt to our climate?

    As Hydretaine isn't a fertilizer, I predict that that plug will not do as well as the others in the sand due to the lack of nutrient. It won't dry out as quickly, of course, but should look like the control planting. And yeah, WAY too much Hydretaine granules in that indoor planting.
